What do rodenticides manage?

  1. Management of nematodes

  2. Management of pest fish

  3. Management of rodent populations

  4. Prevention of plant diseases

The correct answer is: Management of rodent populations

Rodenticides are not used for managing nematodes, which are microscopic roundworms that primarily attack plant roots and can cause significant damage to crops. They are also not effective in managing pest fish, which are non-native species that can cause harm to native aquatic ecosystems. While rodenticides can prevent plant diseases that are spread by rodents, their primary purpose is to manage rodent populations by eliminating or controlling their numbers.
