  • Chicago’s rat problem is nothing new. The city has long been dubbed one of America’s “rattiest” cities. In 2022, Orkin named Chicago the rat capital of the U.S. for the eighth consecutive year.

    I used to work at a state prison. We had at least 10 cats the inmates would feed. I know it sounds weird for a state prison to have stray cats, but they also were mouse and rat exterminators. Rats and mice are allergic to mint. Spreading mint oil will repel the rats, and make your yard smell good. Also, New York has a dog program that goes out of a night, hunt and kill rats. Lastly, there are small game traps that Chicagoans can buy at farm supply stores that will live-catch the rats, then they can be taken and disposed of.

    Rats go where the food is. I have young and middle aged neighbors who love to entertain outdoors for as long as Chicago weather permits and there's always food dropped by guests. And, people don't clean up after themselves either once the party ends. Leaving bread for squirrels and birdseed in winter winds up feeding rodents too. The problem cannot be entirely blamed on restaurants and dog waste, as some of my neighbors insist it is.

    They use hawks at the airports and parks, but they are missing out on one of the best tools ever against fighting rats 🐀 grain stores and others use Ferrets or minx. They are rat killing machines that can get pretty much anywhere a rat can get. They use trained ones on farms ect. Least a few times a year to protect stock feed and control Disease outbreaks. Release a large enough breeding population and until the rats are pretty much wiped out they will also breed like machines. I rather have some cute little ferret running over my feet then some Diseased filled rat.
