Post-earthquake pest issues in Diyarbakır
Overview
Residents in the Şeyh Şamil neighborhood of the Bağlar district in Diyarbakır are reporting a significant increase in rats and mice following the destruction of buildings caused by recent earthquakes. Local inhabitants claim that the lack of proper cleaning in sewage connections and basement areas of demolished structures has allowed rodent populations to expand.
Neighborhood Muhtar Çiçek Gözen stated that the infestation is affecting the psychological well-being of residents, with some individuals being forced to abandon their homes. Although pest control measures were implemented approximately one month ago, residents report that these efforts were not permanent and that large rodents continue to appear in groups during the evening hours.
