Garbage can(s) sitting on the road/sidewalk (8th street side)
Garbage can(s) sitting on the road/sidewalk (8th street side)
Armchair sitting in front of house by the street for a week.
Trash in the alley.
There's been a mattress dumped off there on the west side of North Adam's Street just before Fountain Drive. It's been there about 1 week.
Trash all over this lot.
The residents moved out a week ago and left a pile of furniture parts and trash in the yard and up against the house. Kept thinking they may return, but I have seen no one.
Refer to cases #186916, #188213, and #188214. Someone ended up putting a rubber stopper in the hole at the base of the dumpster, which temporarily prevented the rats from entering it. However, rubber is a delicacy for rats (which it seems garbage-oriented people should well know) and it was soon devoured. Now the problem is back full-force, with rats running in and out of the dumpster and scurrying around the parking lot. The drain-hole is threaded on the inside, implying that the manufacturer of the dumpster had in mind (and likely supplies) a metal screw-type insert that will be rat-proof. Please ask the company to install the correct type of fitting so that this problem is permanently fixed.
