Rats the size of burritos feast on Chipotle’s trash in Brooklyn Heights
Chipotle blames construction site; BHA blames Chipotle
Supersized rats have been feasting on the all-you-can-eat trash buffet in front of Chipotle in Brooklyn Heights, but locals are the ones who’ve had their fill.
The popular Montague Street eatery dumps its garbage out front around 6 p.m. every evening, giving rats hours of feeding time.
“On average, I see four or five rats going back and forth from the garbage to the building next door under construction,” said Brooklyn Heights resident William Taylor who has documented the ripped-open garbage bags and the vermin. “With a constant source of food, I wonder how big the rat community has grown!”
