Résumé
Montreal is experiencing an increase in complaints about rats, with reports doubling over the past year. The rise is attributed to factors such as increased construction, warmer winters, and ineffective waste management. Town officials are being pressured to adopt more proactive measures to address the rodent problem, including better signage for waste disposal and enhanced pest control strategies. Some citizens have expressed frustration over the inaction despite the growing concerns. The city plans to launch awareness campaigns and consider new regulations to mitigate the rat infestation and improve cleanliness in urban areas.
