To Control Rat Populations, Birth Control may be More Effective than Poison
Every trip Erma Jones makes to her garbage can, she’s greeted by a few unexpected, and unappreciated, guests. “Oh yeah, they get into the house,” says Jones, who lives on Chicago’s South Side. “I got rat poison in different corners of the house. It works, but the idea of them coming in the house and dying in the house ... then you gotta search for them.” Jones laughs it off but is quick to point out she never had this kind of rat problem when she lived in Mississippi. And her observations are backed up by an annual list put out by the pest-control company Orkin, which often names Chicago America's rattiest city.
