Description
Location to enter in the app: 80 Peterborough St, Boston, MA 02215 Description:"Severe and dangerous rat infestation on the public sidewalk and dirt areas between 76 and 82 Peterborough St. Every night, between 8 PM and 6 AM, dozens of massive rats travel in lines of 4 or 5 right across the pedestrian walkway. They have dug huge, highly visible burrows in the dirt areas next to the buildings. The current black bait boxes are completely failing; the rats are nesting directly underneath them and multiplying. This is a critical public health hazard for neighbors and pedestrians walking by at night. Please send Inspectional Services (ISD) to treat these dirt burrows aggressively with dry ice or direct treatments immediately."
