Rat sighting at the Anchor. the rat ran across the top of the stairs/cement seats in the back of the anchor towards the bathrooms. At twilight timing if evening

At 47 Gardner St, Allston, in front of the brick building, there is a stone yard area beneath a tree where someone has been leaving bird food. Over the past two days, I have seen at least five newborn/baby rats crawling out of holes in this area in the day time. I have attached images with red circles marking the holes where I have seen the baby rats emerge. At night, adult rats also come out to eat the bird food. They are not afraid of people and frequently run across the driveway and yard. This feels very unsafe, especially at night, because residents have to walk through this area to reach the front entrance. Please inspect and address the active rodent infestation and food source before the problem gets out of hand and continues to spread.

Getting worse

This has been a continued noncompliance issue for 2–3 years, despite multiple reports, with no improvement. Is there any way we can take action to improve the environment and overall condition of this neighborhood?
