Rimmer Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 City to go rat hunting 3 times per month PATTAYA:--Pattaya’s Center of Disease Control and Prevention plans to hunt down rats on Pattaya Beach three times a month after last year’s flooding led to an explosion in the vermin population. Anya Janthrakas, head of the Public Health and Environment Department office, said the city has actively been exterminating rats for more than five years, but last year’s flooding created a shortage of rat poison. Fed by food left behind by beach vendors and tourists, and fueled by a birthrate that can see every female rat producing up to 85 offspring a year, the problem has become an epidemic. Rats can be seen frequently along Pattaya Beach, nesting in or under coconut trees and in flower beds.
