2009 18th St NW in AdMo- Rats

Just a heads up to anyone who is freaked out by how many rats and rat burrows are in NW this summer - I walked by the former Alfresco Tap & Grill and that yard is absolutely WRECKED with rat burrows. It looks like a prairie dog exhibit at the zoo.

If you’re walking after dusk I’d try another route! I realized they’re razing that building for a TBD residential development which is probably why. It should really be on these developers to pay for and provide some kind of rat abatement strategy when these demo projects go on.

Anyway, I have rat anxiety these days so thought I’d mention in case there’s other hotspots people should know about.
