We're #1!
Chicago has been ranked the “rattiest” city in America for the ninth consecutive year.
Los Angeles and New York took second and third, respectively, according to the Top 50 Rattiest Cities List released by Orkin, a pest control company.
The ranking represents the number of residential and commercial rodent treatments the company performed in the last year, and does not directly correlate to an approximate count of the rat population in each city.
We've also been ranked as the Number One Bed-Buggiest City in the First World (there are still third world shitholes that rank higher in per capita bed bugs). Los Angeles has the Bestest Tent Cities.
San Francisco has us beat on the Poopiest Streets so far though.

Has the EPA legalized the use of Dry Ice to wipe out rat nests?
The best way to get rid of bed bugs is to just burn down the entire building.
Any local bands want to do a cover?
Don't you know the crime rate's going up, up, up, up, up? (Shadoobie, shattered)
To live in this town you must be tough, tough, tough, tough, tough, tough, tough (Shadoobie, shattered) (Shadoobie, shattered, shattered)
We've got rats on the west side, bed bugs uptown (Shadoobie, shattered)
What a mess, this town's in tatters, I've been shattered (Shadoobie, shattered)
My brain's been battered, splattered all over Manhattan (Shadoobie, shattered)
Shadoobie, shattered, shattered
What I say?
Shadoobie, shattered
Shadoobie, shattered
Shadoobie, shattered
This town's full of money grabbers (Shadoobie, shattered)
Go ahead, bite the Big Apple, don't mind the maggots, uh-huh (Shadoobie, shattered) (Shadoobie, shattered)
Men get out there & start pooping

Since it's almost Halloween?
How about a low budget horror film?
"Cannibal Rats of Englewood"
"Meth Rat"
"Squeak!" (Giant Mutant Rats begin disappearing Homeless and Drug Addicts)
Assist your neighborhood free roaming cats.
An occasional bit of scrap food put out for these territorial hunters of the rodents, to show them the respect and appreciation for their blessing your neighborhood with their presence, works wonders.
You know you have succeeded in this when you find a few rat tails, perhaps a severed head, lying where they got their final pouncing.
Chicago is a real shit-whole.
Cockroaches high on the list also only come out at night
Think rats are bad now?
Wait until the city decides rat control needs to be cut.
I know someone who is a supervisor at Streets and San. He told me the city stopped baiting with traditional poison years ago and are instead using a bait that kills the ability to reproduce. Well, it’s not working. Much like the line from Jurassic Park…nature finds a way. Instead, he told me to get some REAL bait (not that shit at the grocery store) and put the bait under the garbage cans so other animals can’t get to it.
The first day I put about 10 pounds of bait under my and my neighbors cans. The next day I checked and ALL of the bait was gone. It literally took about 50 pounds over several weeks until less and less was being eaten.
Final note… I told this to someone who lived next to an abandoned house that always had rats coming and going. He bought a 5 gal bucket of the bait, opened the lid, and threw the bucket into the house. The next day, all of the bait was eaten and the damn rats even chewed through the bucket.
Orkin pest control has sent out a communication.
Chicago is the rattiest city in the nation!
There not talking about the mayor.
But commonly said by the naysayers.
There are plenty of vermin in this location
When you throw chicken bones and chicken fat directly in the garbage without using garbage bags its buffet time for rats.
# 1 with rats (they must have looked in city hall)
# 1 with bed bugs
Crime rates, shootings, car-jackings and murders always going up.
And a democratic mayor since 1934 (just a coincidence, I'm sure)
This morning as I was walking out the back door of the 005th district, I had to move out of the way as I saw a Rat being chased by another Rat towards the building. It appeared that Rat #1 was holding his side and appeared have a bulge on his side. Rat #2 was closing the gap on the fleeing rat as they disappeared into the grassy area along the building.
Only in Chicago are there Rats that run up on you with no fear or reprocussions for their actions. But,I have to remember this is CROOK COUNTY and the asa does not charge for attacking or assaulting Law Enforcement.
A-TEAM!
check out Pritzker Park (I know, fitting). Got to be a thousand rats out there at night.
My Mexican pest control expert will kill every rat, mouse, squirrel, within a 2 block radius for $125.00. But it won't be humane.
Have we included the 2 legged RATS in City Hall??
DemocRATS.
Ever drive through Chicago's alleys? Garbage is everywhere. Folk just dump stuff on the streets, sideways, backyards, parks, etc. A massive feeding ground.
Our worst rat problem is at 1412 W. Washington. We can set up some traps and bait them with expensive steak dinners or expensed luxury vacations.
The rats love Pritzker Park for some reason. Never seen anything like it. Maybe it his leftovers they like.
No surprise we had 50 Alder Rats for years ! Twice as many as any other city in America !
This is GREAT! (ob ref: Flounder voice, Animal House).
At least when the City devolves entirely, we'll have something to eat.
Seriously, all the City needs to do is put a $0.25 bounty on each dead rat brought in to Streets and San by a piss bum, and the rat problem will be handled in 48 hours. But that'd be efficient and effective, and we can't have *that* >sarcasm<

What is "real bait" and where can I find some? Because the rats seem to learn to avoid those green cakes from Home Depot after a few days.
I like seeing scabby the rat he’s like 9 feet tall and fugly as hell but he doesn’t give a rat’s ass about anything but scabs
People are calling Gaza an open air prison just wait till the migrants tent camps go up you ain't seen nothing yet.

I used “Ramik” (green balls) and cheap peanut butter and mixed the balls of the poison with the peanut butter. Keep in mind that the poison takes a few days to kill. No poison kills immediately. As far as the brand of poison the guy with the abandoned house used…I’m not sure. He just said he was able to get a 5 gal bucket if it online. Whatever you do, understand that it’s going to take several weeks to kill everything in the area. Maybe tell your neighbors too. I’m sure they are just assuming the city is on top of it.
When you find rat holes in the alley or sometimes under a garage foundation. Pour in some bleach first, watch a little bit, then pour in ammonia. The chlorine gas (which is heavier than air) made from this will settle deep in the burrow killing all the rats in the nest.
I live by Harlem and Foster, I got 3 this summer with My Rat traps,

The FLOP rats may able to bend, stretch and break rules and bylaws and interpret the constitution as they see fit as the majority of the membership has absolutely no clue what transpires on Washington street and beyond.
But the IRS pays much greater attention to anomalies directly related to such things.
I remember one year a while ago Chicago won the rattiest city award while Elizabeth Warren was in town stumping for the CTU! I couldn't have made that up!
There 1 million dogs downtown and in neighborhoods no one picks up their Dog Shit.
Strychnine is said to be the most effective on rats if you can find it back in the 70s people were snorting it as it was mixed in with other street drugs more than a few brain cells were lost
Pick a direction and drive that way for 50-60 miles out of this shit hole. Stop at the Fleet Farm Rural King or similar store. Get the good shit the farmers use and pick up some ammo that’s probably on sale. Find a bar & grill in town for a burger and beer and good solid conversation with a local who’s probably a veteran. Return to said shit hole a bit more happy and with a possible retirement spot in mind.
Or go online check out Farnham products. I’ve had good luck with them
But the west side and the south side have the cleanest garbage cans around. Because they never use them
Don’t any of you own a nice high velocity air soft with a scope? Nobody here sits on their back porch with a beer plinking rats off of their garbage can for fun? Or is that just a Canaryville thing?
