Capsaicin, a compound found in chili peppers of the genus\n                    <jats:italic>Capsicum<\/jats:italic>\n                    , produces a burning sensation in the mouth of mammals and is used effectively as an animal deterrent for some pest species. Applied to poultry feed, capsaicin may be effective as an aversive agent to deter rodent feeding and enhance acceptability of rodenticide baits. We tested capsaicin\u2010treated poultry diets (2000 and 3000 Scoville Heat Units, SHU) in no\u2010choice feeding trials at four active New York farms in the winter of 1997\u20131998. At all farms, consumption of the 2000 SHU diet by rodents (Norway rats,\n                    <jats:italic>Rattus norvegicus<\/jats:italic>\n                    (Berk), and house mice,\n                    <jats:italic>Mus musculus<\/jats:italic>\n                    L) was significantly less than consumption of a control diet. Consumption of the 3000 SHU diet by rodents was significantly less than consumption of a control diet at three of the four farms. Overall, consumption of treated diets was 58\u201397% and 55\u201398% less than consumption of the control diet, for the 2000 and 3000 SHU diets, respectively. These reductions appeared to be related closely to the availability of alternative feed sources at these farms. Two\u2010choice feeding trials involving a rodenticide bait (0.05 g kg\n                    <jats:sup>\u22121<\/jats:sup>\n                    brodifacoum) and the 3000 SHU diet demonstrated that Norway rats preferred the rodenticide to the capsaicin\u2010treated poultry feed. Overall, rodenticide bait acceptance was high (95.6%) when offered simultaneously with capsaicin\u2010treated poultry feed. Although poultry managers must utilize several techniques to manage rodent pests, the use of capsaicin\u2010treated diets to reduce feed losses and increase rodenticide bait acceptance appears promising. Use of capsaicin\u2010treated feed on poultry farms may substantially reduce feed contamination by rodents and ultimately the incidence of\n                    <jats:italic>Salmonella<\/jats:italic>\n                    infection in poultry.
