It's a simple rule-of-thumb to follow when you have a rat problem, according to Corrigan, who has a Ph.D. in urban rats studies and advises cities, including the District.
“The rats do not like to chew into bleach tasting anything,” he says. “If the outside of the can smells like bleach to that famous nose of theirs, they're like, 'Well, this ain't food.’”

Isn’t it just too bad that bleach doesn’t work on DemonRats.
Can we use it in San Fran to aid the homeless???
Can we spray it on ballot drop boxes ?
I don’t like the smell of bleach either................
I wonder how,long the smell lasts though? Especially outdoors?
If it’ll repel democrats then I’m headed to the store now to buy all they have.
You should just buy the stuff they use at most workplaces - seems to work well.
I’ve used moth balls but they are not good for buildings with human habitation (carcinogenic & awful smell)
The bleach (pool) hockey pucks might work
Give it a couple of years. The big question will be, if the rats don’t come around, what the heck are we supposed to eat?
“A Ph.D. in urban rats studies!!!”
My first reaction was the same. Yet, upon further thought, why not? Rats/rodents are indeed a significant urban problem. Rat studies is actually a far more useful discipline than critical race theory, gender studies, queer literature, and all the various and sundry other “woke” fields of study.
So his solution is to prompt the rats to move to your a neighbors? Moving the problem doesn’t solve the problem. Our cities are being overrun with homeless, which results in an explosion of rats. Homeless bring trash which brings rats. We need to kill the rats and remove the homeless. Both the rats and the homeless are too well fed. Making both less comfortable will be a start.
I was sold on pumping their lairs with dry ice which suffocates them due to the carbon dioxide it gives off. When PETA lectures that such pest control is “too cruel”, you know it’s gotta be effective.

I disagree, problem solved!
I worked in the “War on Rats” as a manager on several Urban Rat Control projects. On paper, they were excellent courses of action and got good results i.e., Environmentally Improved Blocks. In reality, most cities did not do their job in maintaining them as rat-free. And yes this was a make jobs program.
Newly moved to NYC from DC in 1970. In my first spring walked from my apt on West 73rd just off Broadway to the Hudson River 72nd Boat Basin. Nice warm clear day. Leaned over the railing of the river walk just taking in the view when peripherally caught sight of some movement below me. Looked down to the rough rip rap rock wall and saw an army of big rats sunning themselves on the rocks below me, upriver, and downriver. Brazen bastids never bothered to even glance at me. Rat Riviera on the Hudson.
