Residents in the northern zone of Mérida are demanding increased fumigation efforts following a significant cockroach infestation. The problem is reportedly concentrated around Amsterdam, London, and Brussels streets, affecting both public spaces and newly constructed homes.

A local resident reported via social media that despite private fumigation attempts, the insects continue to reappear in large numbers. The complaint highlights issues with manholes and drains, calling for more intensive and repeated interventions by the City Council and the service provider, FCC, to control the pest population.
