Effects of deltamethrin applications on non-target small mammal populations in South Dakota, Colorado, and Idaho, 2010-2017

We trapped small mammals at two sites in Badlands National Park, Pennington County, South Dakota from 2013-2017; two sites in Larimer County, Colorado from 2010-2011; and four sites in Adams County, Idaho from 2014-2017. Each site contained at least one or more treated plots (deltamethrin dust applied to burrows or bait stations for flea control) paired with one or more non-treated plots. We trapped Peromyscus mice in all three states. We trapped Microtus voles in Colorado and South Dakota. We trapped Chaetodipus mice in Colorado and South Dakota. We trapped Reithrodontomys mice only in Colorado. We trapped paired treated and non-treated plots simultaneously within each site, with traps opened in the evening and...
