CDC Warns Public of Starving,<br />Aggressive Rats in U.S. The Centers for Disease Control and<br />Prevention (CDC) recently warned Americans<br />about an increase in aggressive<br />rat problems across the country. According to their statement, the COVID-19<br />pandemic has resulted in decreased food<br />waste, AKA food available to rodents. In turn, this has caused an increase in <br />“unusual or aggressive rodent behavior" <br />as they search for new food sources. CDC, via Fox News Urban rodentologist Bobby Corrigan says <br />some rodents, such as the rats in New York <br />City, have even resorted to cannibalism. Bobby Corrigan,<br />to Fox News Residents are being advised by<br />the CDC to take “preventative<br />actions” and eliminate conditions<br />that may attract rodents. This includes sealing up access points into homes<br />and businesses, keeping garbage in tightly-covered<br />bins, removing pet and bird food from yards and<br />removing debris and heavy vegetation.
