[quote=Anonymous]As someone living on a block full of restaurants, DC obviously doesn't want to fix this or they would require rat proof dumpsters and garbage cans. We are extremely careful not to overfill the dumpster but it is no deterrent to the rats. They easily find their way inside. I also have never thought of having nightly garbage pick up but that is brilliant. I have a dog that I found out is an incredible ratter within weeks of moving to the city from the 'burbs. He's a hound with no prey drive noted, so it was quite unexpected. I stopped counting after he killed the 100th within months. You're welcome Georgetown! Of course, he didn't put a noticeable dent in the numbers but I like to think of a the rats he helped not be born.[/quote]
