Saugus Town Hall PLUS

Is there a Rat problem in Saugus? I live on Indian Rock drive and discovered holes being dug under my deck. At first I dismissed it as chipmunks, later I discovered that they were huge Norweigian Rats. I had an exterminator come and they placed boxes with poison around my property. But need to be careful because i have small dogs. My cousin on Randell road told me he is spotting them in his area and his neighbor also hired an exterminator. Another friend of mine lives near the Iron Works is catching them trying to control the population. He says he kills two or three a night. My neighbor also confirmed seeing them often. I also noticed that someone on Stillings had rat boxes on the border of their property. I emailed a couple of people at the town hall but didn't get a response. Is the town aware of this problem and are their any plans to deal with it?

Wire lying low approx. 4-5ft from ground

Very low hanging wires Needs to be tightened or tied up

Piles of construction related trash and debris next to a fire pit. Land abuts conservation land.

The neighbors are having another fire pit on a red flag warning night…. They have for several nights and the embers are flying in the wind. This property abuts close to 8 properties on a dead end street. Also their garage they installed a fire pit or something inside where I see smoke raising through the chimney which never happened before. Very concerned due to the winds.

There is a pair of sneakers wrapped around the telephone wires at the intersection of Robinson and Denver st. It could be a fire hazard.

There is a wire hanging from Pole number eight. Resident of 12 Lothrop street has called DPW office to report. Resident is nervous because the wire is hanging from the pole and is directly on their metal fence. See pictures. If not a hazard can someone call Me. & Mrs. Bayne of 12 Lothrop at 7812336631 to advise that it should not be dangerous please.
