Near my home is a community garden. I walked through it and saw a bulletin board. One message said something about avoiding to have birdseed near the rat poison containers because birdseed "neutralizes" rat poison. I found this to be very interesting. At first I thought they meant that if a rat eats birdseed the poison has no effect. But then I thought about it and I thought maybe the person who wrote it was bad at my language and they meant that birdseed on the ground will attract rats from outside of the community garden, thereby nullifying the effect of the rat poison. Does anyone know anything about this? I work with buses and I frequently see shells from sunflower seeds or something similar left on the buses. Also at a job I had in the past the boss used to eat what I think is the same type of seed and I think it's sunflower seeds. I think rat poison contains fluoride. That made me think maybe these people eat these seeds to cure fluoride poisoning.
