Illinois: Ask Your State Representative to Ban Cruel Glue Traps
This action is for Illinois residents only.
The Illinois state legislature is considering an important animal protection bill, H.B. 5144, which would prohibit the sale and use of adhesive-based traps.
Glue traps cause immense suffering to animals who become stuck, as rodents and other small animals often struggle for hours or days, sometimes chewing off their own limbs in a desperate attempt to escape before dying from exhaustion, dehydration, or starvation.
Email your state representative using the form below to urge their support. Personalizing the subject line and message will increase your effectiveness.
