There might be less rats if trash was put in bins instead of just a pile of bags dumped on the ground on the street. I'm looking at you, Green St.

Years ago I lived in Lynn, I used to think it was weird that there were so many "opossums" around, till I saw one up close.

Oh, there were. I lived in the Fenway area back in 2005 and we had RATS. They would come out from the radiator and climb the Venetian blinds to get to our hanging plants. Once they were done feasting on the roots, they’d dive-bomb back down to the floor and scurry back into the radiator.
We had rats.

My bud had a place near Harry's in Allston, we used to count the rats running to and from the landlord's shed while we were grilling and having beers. They were coming from the restaurants in the area.

The way the lot was configured we were dumping the snow into the side neighbor's back yard, but they were cool with it.
The house behind us threw a fit that snow was getting thrown from our driveway into her yard. It was stupid too because they paid someone to clear their driveway so there was a giant mound of snow that the plow had pushed to the end of their driveway and our snowblower was putting it just over the fence but well behind that mound.

Hose it down and salt the earth is my plan unless flame throwers are affordable.

I’m still traumatized. I had to walk two blocks down the street to find somewhere to dump each shovel of snow

Last winter I put some of it on top of the pile the plow had already made. It was technically on the street, but between a street parking spot and driveway entrance. You can pile it up against/next to public trees if you have any, or between the sidewalk and street parking, as long as pedestrians can get by and it doesn't touch any parked cars.

We shoveled our yard to make space before the third storm. There was no room along the driveway.

Well, when the winter rolls around, they would freeze to death.

Back in the early 2000’s we all said that rats transformed into squirrels when they crossed the Allston/Brookline line.

That winter it got too high for the snowblower to throw the snow over. We had to take stepladders and shovel about four feet off the top and push it down the backside so that the snow didn't just tumble back down onto our parking spaces.

It’s likely because our standards are much higher
