It is <br /> not clear on why roasting (mast seeding) happens. She mentioned that Somerville had a pilot program with pre- <br /> bated traps ContraPest—forces female rats into early menopause slowing breeding. <br /> The board reviewed the rodent letter for any mistakes and then approved it to be mailed out to the designated <br /> area affected. <br /> The board discussed what we are currently doing as the Board of Heath in regard to the rodent issues,whether <br /> it's stricter guidelines, new ways to dispose of trash, better dumpster sanitation etc. Sexton had an idea of <br /> looking into a new way for trash disposal and suggested reviewing the dumpster policy for sanitation. <br /> The meeting dates for October 2018-December 2018 were determined: October 151", November 26"and <br /> December 17", all at 6 pm.The meeting dates for 2019 were discussed: the 3'd Monday of each month with <br /> exception of holidays.
