According to the pest control pros Orkin they have the inside scoop on which cities in the nation are home to the most rats.
Orkin ranked metro regions by the number of new rodent treatments including both residential and commercial treatments.
Orkin pointed out that “during an unprecedented last year, the visibility of rodents increased, creating concern for homeowners and business owners alike.
