Our neighbor recently started leaving lots of food around their yard, piles of carrots, rotting bread and other mysterious rotting items. This is driving our dog nuts, and also attracting a lot of pests – I’ve caught four large rats in snap traps this last week.
I have talked to them about it, and they explained that they are doing this explicitly to attract animals like possums and raccoons… They said it was just like the bird feeder we have, which I’m actually not using, because of the rat issue now.
They have been good neighbors for years now and this is a new thing. I think there is some sort of mental health thing going on. I don’t want to get them in trouble with the city or their landlord, but I would like to see this stop.
