Industrial Barium Carbonate for Rat Poison Bait
Barium carbonate formulated for rodenticide baits is a chemically defined inorganic salt toxic to mammals, used in pest control products. HTS 2836.60.00.00 applies as it remains a simple barium carbonate, not an organo-inorganic compound per chapter exclusions.
