New York City is tackling its rat problem with a new bill introduced by City Council Member Shaun Abreu, using contraceptive bait to humanely control the rat population by blocking reproduction. This innovative, non-lethal approach, championed by Dr. Loretta Mayer, provides a sustainable solution to the city’s long-standing rat issues.
A new City Council bill would deploy contraceptives in hopes of reducing the rat population and protecting wildlife, like Flaco the owl, from being poisoned.
We’ve just come back from the 31st Vertebrate Pest Conference in Monterey, California, where our presentations were extremely well-received and generated a substantial amount of interest in our fertility-control technology and methodology. We’ll be sharing the details about new pilot programs and partnerships that result from this conference as they emerge.
Next week will be a busy one for WISDOM Good Works as our scientists and end users present at conferences on both coasts about the benefits of fertility-control technology to control overpopulations of rodents.
Next week will be the 10th annual World Wildlife Day, a global observance created by the United Nations General Assembly to celebrate wildlife and the conservation work being done to ensure the ecosystems thrive.
KJZZ highlights Dr. Loretta Mayer of WISDOM Good Works and her innovative approach to controlling rat infestations by focusing on fertility control instead of traditional poisons. This method, discovered accidentally, aims to reduce rat populations with fewer unintended consequences.
We are at a time of transition for our Board of Directors of WISDOM Good Works, as we say farewell to two people who helped us launch this nonprofit and welcome two others to our ranks.
On the website of A Place Called Hope, a rehabilitation center for birds of prey in Killingworth, Connecticut, you can buy a t-shirt or bandana emblazoned with the image of a Great Horned Owl encircled by the words “Stop Poisoning Our Food – Ban Rodenticides!”

As WISDOM Good Works closes the book on 2023, we would like to thank all of you for taking this journey with us.
Through your unwavering support, we have made significant strides in our mission to restore ecological balance through our fertility-control technology that is organic, effective, and eliminates the need for dangerous poisons.
