Starlicide can and does kill non-target species of birds.

If pesticides are the chosen method, selective organic or natural pesticide is often better because it has less impact on non-target species.

By-catch is the incidental capture of non-target species in fisheries.

It has been claimed that the compound is less toxic to non-target species.

Shrimp trawling can result in very high incidental catch rates of non-target species.

Most salmon fisheries in particular have an extremely low incidence of catching non-target species.

In addition, collateral damage, in the form of killing non-target species, is zero.

In addition, attempts to control them have severely affected non-target native species.

The pesticides also killed birds and other non-target species.

Main concern is toxicity to non-target species, especially birds.
