CITY BUREAUCRATS DROWN A BETTER MOUSETRAP AS RATS SWARM THE STREETS.

A simple, deadly trap KILLED RATS 4 TO 1 against the city’s failing methods. The proof was in the bodies. Then Johannesburg officials THREW IT AWAY.

In 2018, inventors went head-to-head with the City of Joburg in Msawawa. Their “Hamelin” trap—a cheap, poison-free bucket that drowns rodents—obliterated the city’s traps, 81 rats to 21. It was a SLAUGHTER. And it worked.

But the city BURIED the solution. Now, the plague explodes. Exterminator Diederik van’t Hof, who helped design the trap, warns NO suburb is safe. “Unless you wipe out that nucleus, you are going to have an endless rat problem,” he states. Rats carry deadly diseases like hantavirus and leptospirosis. Yet the city’s only answer is empty promises and “revising” old, failed programs.

Who benefits from the failure? While families live in fear, officials hide behind desks. A City spokesperson offers hollow reassurances about a “complicated” issue. The SPCA even protested the effective trap for being “inhumane,” preferring what? Poison? Disease? Meanwhile, groundbreaking research by Gordon Ringani confirms the obvious: our overflowing garbage is the rats’ buffet. The brown rat, dominating areas like Alexandra, feasts almost exclusively on our discarded food.

This isn’t just about pests. It’s about a broken system that REJECTS PROVEN SOLUTIONS, leaving citizens to suffer in a silent, scratching epidemic.

The winning weapon against the plague is sitting in a storage shed, collecting dust while your children sleep.
