The rat infestation is so bad at one New York City Housing Authority complex that residents feel they are "hostages in our own home at night."
The Washington Houses Tenant Association's executive board sent a letter to NYCHA about the problem before Winter of 2018. It noted that "rats start to come out at 6 p.m. like clockwork." The rats are still a problem now, according to Tenant Association President Claudia Perez.
"I have more rats than I do residents," she said

RECIPE FOR “Enchiladas El Mouse-o EN EL HOUSE-O”
6 corn tortillas 6 mice parboiled, stripped, boned, chopped, seasoned. 2-3 large red dried chiles soaked in water 5 min. l choped green onion, cilantro for decorating. oil/onions. salt pepper to taste,
Make regular enchilada sauce by grinding the soaked chiles in the pot liquor, and straining well to separate the chile skin from the chile’s red meat. Then, fry onions, throw sauce in for l minute. Set aside.
Heat tortillas on a greased skillet, drop into sauce until covered, pull out, then fill the sopping wet tortilla with about 2 tbsps. mouseburger, roll. Set rolls in a dish, line all six up. Pour remaining sauce on top. Decorate with any old cheese, l chopped green onion. Bake l5 min at 350.
SHEPHERD’s PIE
Not every shepherd can dice a lamb every time his belly rumbles. So many have learned to make do with DICED FIELD MICE.
Take 4 potatoes, boil, mash, season, add cream, mash some more, line 8” pieshell with them.
Boil six medium sized mice. Rats are ok if you know what they’ve been eating. No Buick upholstery or graveyards.
If the rodents are the right size, you should have a cup of rat meat (depending if you’ve cleaned the carcasses well enough.) Season with salt, pepper, cayenne, add l cup blanched, chopped almonds, l cup cracker crumbs, l egg, (reserve l tsp for topping) making a burger. OPTIONAL: bell pepper, onions, cilantro, parsley, thyme, oregano, l can creamed corn, l can of those crunchy chinese things, water chestnuts, chopped olives, a dash of catsup or tomato sauce.
Fill the pie. Cover with more potatoes. Use egg/cream to wipe down pie so it toasts brownish in oven.
Remember, a rabbit is just a big rodent. The taste of the flesh is identical. Ask any concentration camp visitor.
TIP: when cooking rodents, pre-soaking up to 5 hours helps take away that pesky rodent flavor. AND the longer you cook it, with the other ingredients, the better the meat tastes.
Time to offer a bounty on a dead rat. $5 each would take down the population quickly.
Do the rats look like Bill De Blasio?
Obviously, you have never seen a four legged, NYC rat. A BB gun would just piss them off.
Not to sound insensitive to the issue but …
The tenant association can take action on their own.
Rat poison, traps, sealing up basement walls where they come in etc.
Take matters into their own hands. But New York so I suppose there are laws providing only certified UNION workers can do anything in the projects...
And not to be critical of certain people, but the types of people who live in public housing, are not the type to be pro-active about anything. So I doubt that the tenant’s association could recruit tenants to do any actual work such as you suggest.
Personally, I think cats could have a role to play here. Anyone ever think of that?
A good break-barrel pellet gun (.22 cal) will kill them dead. I kill groundhogs with one.
Perfect. I am sure there are plenty of feral cats they could round up and send there. But that presents the same problem you spoke of. No initiative ...

Rat population directly proportional to filthy humans.
I’ll have a slice without so much rat in it . . .

I use a high powered, break action pellet gun in .177 to take out river rats behind my house.
Baltimore/NYC are more examples of the racist DemoKKKrats ignoring their black voters for their new love, their beloved illegals.
Rats are tougher than hell. Back when America was still America there was a city garbage dump nearby where you could shoot rats to your hearts content. Many took multiple shots with 22 LR to dispatch.
Good to know that a .177 will also do the job.
They’ll put their eye out.
Just tell them that rats are an aphrodisiac. They’ll be gone in a week.
