Rodent Abatement Rebate Pilot Project Planned For Tecumseh

Tecumseh will pilot a rodent abatement strategy that subsidizes the cost of eradicating rats from residential properties.

The program, approved by Council Tuesday evening, will allow residential property owners to apply for a rebate if they engage the services of a pest control company selected by the town.

Financial details, including the rebate allocation and established limit, will be announced by the town once a licensed pest control company is appointed.

The town has budgeted $10,000 for the pilot program for the remainder of 2022.
