IN A bid to rid the island's tourism capital of its worsening rat infestation problem, St. James health officials are now preparing a proposal to present to the St. James Parish Council.
"We are working on a rodent control programme, which is to be submitted to the parish council soon," said Dr. Rao Panado, Medical Officer of Health in charge of the St. James Health Department.
The proposal, which is to be submitted in the coming months, comes on the heels of steps taken by the Hanover Health Department, which recently conducted the first of its rodent control seminars to rid Lucea, the parish capital, of rats.
"When the rain fall I don't know where the rats them appear from but we have to run. Them not afraid of anybody and dem big like mongoose," said Montego Bay resident, Dawn Huggins. "The authorities need to do something because the rat dem walk around like them pay tax," she added.
