Some New York City Council members are introducing what they call a 'rat action plan.' It's a series of bills to tackle the growing rat population across the five boroughs. Details:
"We know that when people start the process of developing, demolishing, that's when we start to rupture foundations. That's when rats get into other people's neighboring homes. They come in through pipes.
They come in through cracks in the foundation and we know that rats can move through very, very small spaces and they can eat their way through almost anything," Councilwoman Sandy Nurse said.Most rat complaints are registered in Brooklyn, Upper Manhattan, and the Bronx.
