There seems to be a new ''surge'' of rats, and mice. Yes, Yes, I know call MLGW.
Has anyone else noticed more activity in the past week?
Email me.
Someone said they think its from construction @ Church on Colonial?
Is there any other possible source for the rats?

Re. Rats, The New Wave

Hi Hunter:

I really can't imagine the construction at the C of C on Colonial really attributing to that problem, but I guess that's possible. Also noted has been a lot of sewer work done on Ivy, north of Park, which may be driving the little varmits down in our direction. I'm wondering too if the dry weather is driving them out of their normal environment looking for water and food. Have a great day - Larry

Re

The C of C thing is probably from the same misinformant telling me to call MLGW.
I just waited on hold for 45 minutes only to learn that I should have called Shelby County Vector Control.
901.323.8403
So when ever you see a surge of rats report it to vector control 901.323.8403. Even if you live in the city.

mice

YES, I have seen a few rodents between Welsh and Hopewell. I think they are coming across in the gutters from Willow Park.
