The city of New York is in a constant battle with the rats that infest its subway system. The rodents seem to be everywhere and are causing problems with the subway riders. Some new studies are being done to see how the problem can be addressed. Of course, cost is always an issue.
Experts say that the main draw for rats is food. They seem to like the garbage collection points the best and are making their homes nearby. The rats can live inside cinderblocks in the walls and are making themselves at home. New baits for traps will soon be tried and many are awaiting the results with baited breath.
