While Jared Kushner was visiting Iraq with a bulletproof vest over his blazer and failing to find $7 billion to finance his phallic eighty-story glass tower on Fifth Avenue, tenants in two of his Lower Manhattan buildings were dealing with a more prosaic problem.
Rats. Big ones.
One of the neighbors opened the door to take out the garbage and a rat jumped on her leg, says a rent-stabilized tenant at 156 Sullivan Street in the South Village who doesnt want to give his name because hes nervous that the landlord might do something.
I can see theres rats running around all over the place, he told the Voice, referring to the enclosed alley next to the building where the garbage cans are kept. A lot of times, you can see the bags move because the rats are in there eating.

(5,611 posts)just to watch after awhile. Yeah, terriers have been used for this for years, very effectively (it is in their breeding). I have been into horses for years and terriers are excellent ratters in barns (they should never be allowed to run around a horse's hooves however as even horses that know the dog very well can still hurt/kill a terrier with a kick out of instinct or even a misstep)
