Description
I would like to report an outdoor rodent problem in my neighborhood that appears to be getting worse. I have repeatedly seen rats running along the street and sidewalks in the area of 162 Ashmont Street. Recently, the rodents have been entering my driveway and getting closer to the property. They have eating through trash and causing damage. The sightings occur frequently, particularly during the evening hours, and the rodents are clearly active outdoors rather than isolated to one location. Their presence near residential properties is concerning for sanitation and public health reasons. I am requesting that the city investigate the area to identify possible sources of the infestation, such as improperly stored trash, debris, or other conditions that may be attracting rodents, and take appropriate action to address the issue.
