What Everyone Should Know

Click here to be directed to the Rat Information Portal, where you will find information about what you can do to control rats on properties you own, manage, or live in. You can also look at findings from the Health Department’s inspections for rats. These are searchable by property address, tax block and lot, or by selecting an area or property from a map. You can look at the inspection history for any property in the City, going back three years.

If you want to learn more about working with others in your community to address rat problems, click here to be directed to the Working in Your Community section of the Rat Information Portal.
