A rat sighting in Calgary? Alberta rat control is on the case
Residents of the southeast community of Inglewood may notice provincial government-branded black boxes, known as bait stations, in their alleyway. These boxes contain rat traps — that's because a video captured what experts think could be an actual rat sighting, rather than an animal misidentified as one. Alberta's rat control program investigates all reports of the rodents, which it has a zero-tolerance policy for, to ensure they don't become established in the province.
