A team of pest management professionals and research scientists are asking PMPs and public health officials for help in determining whether rats have responded to social distancing by migrating from closed businesses into new areas.
A number of PMPs and researchers are attempting to quantify the influence of social distancing on rats—and get this information analyzed when industry and people most need it (e.g., prior to end of lockdown).
If you are tied in to pest management teams anywhere, please consider taking the following survey. The data will be made available to everyone.
