Description
Since the construction has started on Locust St where Shaws used to be I have had to deal with multiple property issues due to their construction but now I have a major RAT problem rats are all around my house and I'm a senior citizen and afraid that I'm going to get sick . My house is the first house on my street that directly s connected to the construction area so all these HUGE ratss are coming over to my property and burrowing under my stairs andALL around my property. At first I was just findingthemh outside but now theyare even e getting into my house! I have a bunch of photos but I'm only allowed to attach one so I tried to pick one showing the large burrow hole and dead rat. I have been trying to kill them myself by setting trap. Doing this I continue I find multiple new dead rats everydaandut I'm sicmyself so d it's hard to get around doing this everyday. I need help getting rid of these rats before my property is completely taken over. I shouldn't have to deal this issue. I have never dealt with anything like thiuntil e they started digging anstarting d all this construction. It's bad enough that I have damage to my proper and y walkway annow my d front stairss also all l crackew so I'm scared of falling due to this construction but now I have to deal with Rats as we? This is now right and I need help plea. . I spoke to an exterminator and they said this construction is causing a lot of problems and I shouldn't have to deal with this on my own as it is a city issue due to thfact that they allowed this major e constructn in the first place. o. My house aentire surrounding ea property area needs to be exterminated and cleared of all these rats ASAP! I'm petrified of gettingn ven sicker due to all the diseases that rats carry especially with beihigh risk patientrand ith everything going on with COVID-19.
