๐ Many slug and snail baits contain Metaldehyde, a chemical that is extremely toxic to dogs and cats. The smell will often entice them to eat it, and once ingested it affects the nervous system.
Signs of ingestion include vomiting, drooling, panting, muscle tremors, wobbly gait, seizures, and hyperthermia.
If your pet has ingested bait containing Metaldehyde it is important to seek emergency treatment immediately! ๐จ
