Pest control company Orkin released a list on Monday of what it termed the top 20 rattiest cities the cities where the company performed the most rodent treatments in 2013.

The Washington region came in third place, behind only Chicago and Los Angeles. (See Orkins complete list at the bottom of this post.)

Rikin S. Mehta, a senior deputy director of the citys Department of Health, told the Post earlier this fall that Washington has one of the most comprehensive rodent-control programs in the country, geared toward understanding patterns of rodent behavior, not just exterminating animals when they pop up.

Mehta said that the city has a team of 14 rodent control specialists who are dispatched within two days every time a 3-1-1 call comes in about a rat sighting in a public place or a business. Residents can also report rat sightings to the Department of Health, and see where their neighbors have spotted rodents, by using the Posts rat tracker.

Over the summer, Mehtas branch of the Department of Healthconducted a rat summit in each ward to ask residents about where they spot the creatures. The results will be published by spring.

Mehta and Gerard Brown, the program manager for the rodent and vector control division, offered some tips for avoiding rats at home: Put trash in a can, not just a plastic bag, and always keep the lid closed. Put away dog food as soon as you finish feeding your pet, and clean up dog waste right away. Keep the grass in your yard short.

Starve the rats, Mehta said. Pesticides are not enough. You really need to cut them at the food source.

Brown agreed, Sanitation is pest control. Eliminate the food, and we can eliminate the rats. We have to change human behavior to do that.

Maybe our competitive spirit will help us with that task. After all, we cant let New Yorkers think theyre better.

The complete list from Orkin: 1. Chicago 2. Los Angeles 3. Washington, D.C.-Hagerstown 4. New York 5. San Francisco-Oakland-San Jose 6. Seattle-Tacoma 7. Detroit 8. Cleveland-Akron-Canton 9. Baltimore 10. Miami-Fort Lauderdale 11. Dallas-Fort Worth 12. Denver 13. Houston 14. Atlanta 15. Boston-Manchester 16. Minneapolis-St. Paul 17. Sacramento-Stockton-Modesto 18. Syracuse 19.

Ecola Termite and Pest Control Wins Best Exterminator 2014

Good progress on tackling highly invasive aquatic pest plants in the lower Waikato River area is a feature of an annual report presented today to Waikato Regional Councils integrated catchment management committee.

Alligator weed and yellow flag iris can clog waterways, crowd out native species and affect the productivity of farmland. They are a particular concern downstream of Huntly but can also be an issue in other parts of the region.

In response to the threat they pose, the council and other organisations last year obtained a regionwide resource consent to tackle designated aquatic weeds by spraying wherever they occur, using the most effective method available. Then, in the past financial year, the council employed a specialist aquatic weeds spraying contactor, who uses flat-bottomed vessels to reach hard to access places.

The work of this contractor, combined with another boat-based contractor and aerial spraying, had seen 80 hectares within the 2200 hectare lower Waikato River delta area treated for alligator weed, the 2013-14 report for the regional pest management plan said. The combined cost for control and surveillance work on a range of pest plants across the region last year was about $260,000.

"This has been a sound investment in keeping on top of plants that have significant potential to disrupt natural habitat and farm productivity in our region," said committee co-chair Stu Kneebone.

Other report highlights included the councils ground-based and aerial possum control operations exceeding targets in all areas. "Excellent possum control results are a credit to the regional councils dedicated contractors," the report said.

The Hamilton Halo possum and rat control work to bring native birds back to the city had continued to have solid success, with pest control targets being maintained in seven bird breeding areas near the city.

Council chair and Hamilton councillor Paula Southgate, who has taken a close interest in Halo, said: "We continue to get very positive feedback from the community about the numbers of tui in Hamilton and its exciting to see the recent reports of kereru and bellbirds in the city."

The council had also laid the groundwork for a saving of $196,000 over three years on possum control by amalgamating 17 treatment areas in the north-west Waikato into three new management areas and implementing multi-year control contracts.

"This latest annual report highlights very good work by staff and contactors when it comes to containing animal and plant pests," said the committees other co-chair Stuart Husband.

Invasive aquatic weeds targeted

CHANDLER, AZ (CBS5) -

A Chandler man with bees on his property said he got stung pretty bad. However, he wasn't talking about the bees, but about the bee removal company he hired to get rid of them.

Over the years, consumers have told CBS 5 News thatwhen they have a pest emergency, especially bees, they often can't get a lot of information from companies over the phone regarding price and time to complete. Not getting at least a rough estimate before technicians come out, can lead to a bad experience.

"They should do it right the first time," Glenn Shupe said.

This past June, Shupe found a swarm of bees in his backyard.

He said the bee removal company he called refused to give a price estimate over the phone or upon arrival at his house. Shupe said the technician took a total of five minutes to complete the job and then handed him a bill for $170.

"Right away I was uncomfortable with the price, but the job was done, so, at that point, I had written a check to him," Shupe said.

If the bees returned, Shupe said the technician promised to come back, but that second visit would cost up to $75.

The bees did come back. Shupe said the companydidn't respond to his calls for help, so he bought his own bee suit and exterminated them himself. Shupe's phone logs show his many calls to the company to discuss the matter but he says all he got was the cold shoulder.

"After I would talk to them, they'd hang up on me, I'd call back again, they didn't answer. So that was the frustration, I knew they were looking at the phone number and not answering," Shupe said.
