Rat infestation in the US and Europe: they are coming from everywhere, the public is in a panic
There has been a serious infestation of rats in the US and in some cities in Europe recently. After New York, one of the largest cities in the US, the rats also raided Glasgow, Scotland.
Officials in the North Kelvinside area of ​​the city said cleanup crews were unable to reach the areas where the dumpsters were located due to rats and that a very serious health problem could develop in the area. The municipality found the solution by relocating the garbage containers.
In the letters sent to the citizens it was reported that the rats endangered the safety of the cleaners, so the garbage collection areas were moved to another place. It was also noted that extraordinary meetings will be held with the participation of citizens to solve the problem in the region.
On the other hand, in many cities in Britain, the rats that have been pouring out from everywhere recently are cause for concern.
ALARM IN NEW YORK: WANTED ‘RAT CHEF’
New York, the most populous city in the US, entered a state of alarm this week due to the infestation of mice. Mayor Eric Adam announced that he declared war on rodents in a tweet he shared Thursday, saying, “There’s nothing I hate more than mice.”
The fact that reports of rats in the city have nearly doubled in the last two years has made authorities uneasy. As rats roaming the streets on many streets have alarmed New Yorkers, a job ad has been posted for a “rat boss” who will work for an annual salary of $120,000 to $170,000 to exterminate rats.
“Your dream job awaits if you have faith, determination and a killer instinct against New York’s endless rat population,” the ad read.
The mobile food carts that filled the streets after restaurant closures in the Covid-19 pandemic are thought to have played a role in the mouse population explosion in big cities. In addition, interruptions in garbage collection during the pandemic process accelerated the reproduction of rats, whose numbers reached millions.
