It CVCBD has one of its mesh trash cans nearby, ask CVCBD to remove
it until CVCBD gets the new rat-resistant trash cans that it says
that it plans to buy. That will help a bit. Near where I live, the
rats have a feast from the CVCBD trash can at 30th and Guilford (at
my request, they removed the can, but then they put it back).<br>
<br>
Also, I will second John's suggestion. At one time, I had a bird
feeder and could not get rid of mice. Finally, I got rid of the
bird feeder and voilà, no more mice.<br>
<br>
The only way to really get rid of rats and mice is not to feed them.<br>
<br>
Incidentally, rats do not travel very far. DNA studies apparently
have shown distinct slight differences between rats in West
Baltimore and rats in East Baltimore, or so I have read.<br>

Make sure all pet food is kept in sealed containers.<br>

I had a horrible rat problem in the back yard several years
ago. When the city began its recycling program, I got serious
and bought trashcans with lids for garbage and recycling
containers. That cut way back.<br>
<br>
I'm sure you already cover trash, but those who don't should
seriously consider putting lids on trashcans.<br>
<br>
Mice? I'd like some ideas too.<br>

Subject: [Chat] Mice<br>
<br>
Hello Everyone,<br>
I was just notified that my third floor tenant has a mouse
problem, maybe a <br>
rat? We don't have these problems in the rest of the house,
yet. An occasional <br>
mouse but not a huge deal. I was wondering what people are
doing around the <br>
area for mice and rats. Our back yard definitely has a rat
problem but <br>
last year I cleaned and cleaned and cleaned more, all summer and
spent a lot of <br>
time out side with my dog and that seemed to help. However they
were still <br>
there just not as bad. ANY IDEAS!!??<br>
