For the replacement of endrin for Arvicola terrestris control in The Netcerlands , an integrated control scheme has been developed. The scheme includes: cultivating arable crops during at least one year before planting of the trees; mole control to prevent easy access of A. terrestris ; planting trees in wire netting at the edges of the orchard; early detection of damage, so that spot treatments are still feasible; only when damage is widespread, overall treatment with bromadiolone.
