Letter to the editor: Rats a nuisance in Springdale
Rats and more rats are running around Springdale. I understand that everyone needs a home, but rats are a nuisance. It can become a dangerous situation for pet owners because of the hantavirus. Many residents were told that the abandoned house and vehicle near Ridge Avenue were not treated before being demolished, and it’s obvious. Rats also cause vehicle damage by chewing wires.
I’m writing to warn others to please be careful. Watch your pets. Do what you can to prevent contact with rats. Rats need to find a home in the woods where they belong. Safety first.
