The City of Chicago has been dubbed America’s “rattiest city” for the sixth consecutive year by pest control company Orkin.

The 119-year-old pest control company rated America’s biggest cities based on the number of rodent treatments performed by its nation-wide army of pest control employees.

“As reported in the spring, the pandemic-driven closure of restaurants forced rodents to find new food sources. Without food waste to consume, these pests were seen scavenging new areas and exhibiting unusual or aggressive behavior,” Orkin noted in its press release.

“The company reported that Los Angeles, New York City, Washington DC, and San Francisco fill out the top five worst infested cities.“

All deep blue cities run be the rats of the two legged variety.

I used to drive into that city in 2014 when I was working up there -— coming through the lower docks part on I-94 right at the Calumet River — smelled like wet rat! ... there was piss and crap in the elevators of the parking garages or in the stairwells... it seems there was algae lake growth on the streets or in alleyways... basically very dirty — can only imagine what it’s like now with Groot as the head honcho.
