Bromindione (also known as bromadiolone) is a second-generation anticoagulant rodenticide used primarily for the control of rodent pests such as rats and mice. It functions by inhibiting the enzyme vitamin K epoxide reductase, which disrupts the synthesis of vitamin K-dependent clotting factors in the blood, leading to uncontrolled internal bleeding and death in target animals after repeated exposure. This product is highly toxic and is not approved for medical use in humans or as a therapeutic anticoagulant. It is typically formulated as bait blocks, pellets, or powders for agricultural, urban, and industrial pest management applications. Strict safety precautions, including protective equipment and proper placement to avoid non-target species, are essential due to its persistence in the environment and potential risks to wildlife, pets, and humans if ingested.
