Abstract

Sitni glodavci često uzrokuju štetu na biljkama u poljoprivredi ali i u šumarstvu. Štete na kori i korijenu pomladka različitih šumskih vrsta grmlja i drveća česte su u nizinskim šumama Hrvatske. Kontrola populacija sitnih glodavaca rodenticidima u šumarstvu je ograničena te je potrebno razvijati alternativne metode. Jedna takva metoda je privlačenje ptica grabljivica na ciljane površine. U okviru ovog završnog rada skupit će se podaci iz dostupne literature o efikasnosti metoda postavljanja stajališta za ptice grabljivice i njihov utjecaj na brojnost glodavaca.

Abstract (english)

Small rodents often cause damage to plants in agriculture and forestry. Damage to the bark and roots of sapling plants of various forest species of bushes and trees is common in the lowland forests in Croatia. Controlling populations of small rodents with rodenticides in forestry is limited, and it is necessary to develop alternative methods. One such method is attracting birds of prey to target areas. In the framework of this paper, data from the available literature will be collected for the effectiveness of methods of setting up artificial perches for birds of prey and their impact on the number of rodents.
