Citizens invited to join for answers to sanitation enforcement, rodent control issues

 

Got Improperly Contained Trash?

 

Got Improperly Contained Dog Poop Bags?

 

Then Chances Are… You’ve Got Rats!

 

Director William O. Howland, Jr. of the DC Department of Public Works (DPW) and Director Joxel Garcia of the DC Department of Health (DOH) invite the public to their joint, live Web chat to discuss how residents can control the District’s rodent population through proper sanitation practices on Friday, May 9, 2014, at noon. Among their numerous services, DOH provides a comprehensive rodent control and animal disease prevention program for the District, while DPW is charged with enforcing sanitation violations that can encourage vermin. Renowned Urban Rodentologist Robert Corrigan, who has studied rats and mice in cities around the world for more than 20 years, will be on hand to provide expert advice on vermin control.
