Citrus rats, if that is exactly what they are, are more than just vegetarians. As an example, they will also eat dog food. I can't help believe that the trash and/or dumpsters around the square add to their variety of food. I also question the 'rules' set up for our trash removal. Many people don't use their garbage disposer and food goes in with the regular trash. If these rats aren't already ripping through trash bags, I think it's just a matter of time until they do.
