You can host a block party in your community. An effective way to get rid of rats locally is to work together with your neighbors. Organize and call the people in your block together. As a group, you can make a commitment to make your neighborhood a place where rats cannot survive.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR CLEAN-UP
When handling rodents, these precautions should be followed to avoid the possibility of disease transmission.
- Ventilate the affected area the night before clean-up by opening doors and windows.
- Use rubber gloves.
- Apply household disinfectants at maximum recommended concentrations to dead rodents, rodent droppings, nest and surrounding area, and allow for at least 15 minutes contact time before removal.
- Clean the affected area with paper towels or a mop. DO NOT SWEEP OR VACUUM. Double bag the disinfectant-soaked rodent and clean-up materials securely in plastic bats and seal.
- Before removing gloves, wash in disinfectant, then soap and water. Thoroughly wash hands with soap and water and dispose of gloves and clean-up materials with other household waste.
