Apparently my house wasn't the only one to be hit by rats last year....and now the mayor has responded with a rather cool initiative.

"The city is preparing a new program to offer free rodent control for homeowners and aims to launch a uniform residential trash barrel program to help keep rats from eating out of trash cans."

Also apparently looking into rat birth control...

Interesting. I already own visually identical barrels to the recycling bins, although as noted above they are black/grey.
