Fighting the rat infestation

Rats, lots of them, are a disgusting problem in New York City. That is why Mayor Bill de Blasio announced a $32 million multiagency plan to reduce the city's rat infestation. The plan is to start in the areas that are most infested. The city has identified three: Grand Concourse section of the Bronx, Chinatown/East Village/Lower East Side in Manhattan, and Bushwick/Bedford-Stuyvesant in Brooklyn.
