New York, NY – Transit officials are considering curbing the growing number of rodents in New York City’s subway system with a product that induces sterility in female rats

The MTA detailed the pilot program on Monday.
The agency is working with SenesTech, a Flagstaff, Ariz.-based company that has used ContraPest in agricultural areas of Southeast Asia.
The product poses no threat to other animals, crops or humans and does not leach into water.
It will be placed in bait boxes in a handful of subway trash rooms.
It isn’t dangerous they said, we didn’t know it was dangerous they will say.
there are 10 rats per person in nyc
What took them so long…its not rocket science.
Give them each a 16 oz soda and they will for sure die.
Here comes PETA
Perhaps if they sterilized the subways, we would not have this problem in the first place?
How about releasing 1000 cats in the subways?
…so let me get this straight…rats can get free birth control, but Sandra Fluke cannot?
i hope they are not using tax payer dollars for rat birth control, and peta ought t look into how this will affect the psychological anf physical well being of the rats who are unable to have families. lastly what effect will this have on male rats who unwittingly eat that stuff.
