In New York, they approved the position of chief rat catcher with a salary of $155 per year.
New York City Mayor Eric Adams has appointed Kathleen Corradi to the position of "Rat Czar" - the city's chief rat control coordinator. Corradi previously worked in rodent control for the New York City Department of Education. Kathleen Corradi's salary will be $155 thousand per year. Corradi will coordinate the work of city agencies, community groups and private sector companies. She promised to immediately address the issues of garbage and food waste removal, as well as find the “most effective technique” for fighting rats.
“Rat control is more than a quality of life issue for New Yorkers. Rats are a symptom of systemic problems including sanitation, health care, housing and economic equity in the city. New York may be famous for Pizza Rat, but rats and the conditions that help them thrive will no longer be tolerated,” Corradi said.
