A day in the life of an NYC 'rat killer'

PIX11’s Eileen Lehpamer got a first-hand look at the never-ending job of a “rat killer” by spending the day with one who is doing his job a little differently.

    Being a rat catcher is perfect in NYC because you'll never run out of rats to find. It's pure genius.

    There are nearly 9 million people in NYC. There are more rats than people and more cockroaches than rats. Rats are afraid of humans because we're so much larger than they are, but if they understood their numbers, they could gang up on us. If eight rats jumped on you all at once, who wins? This could be their world if they only knew.
