'Birdseed Lady' linked to growing rat problem in San Francisco neighborhood

Hundreds, possibly thousands of pounds of birdseed have been dumped around Glen Park over the past two years by the "Birdseed Lady." The excessive birdseed has attracted rodents and caused thousands in damage to local business owners - who even tried to take matters into their own hands.

I once worked at Petsmart and you would catch women like this arguing over how much food they leave out for animals and what kinds of animals would come to eat. They try to top eachother like it was a competition on how insane and out of touch they were. I always wanted to tell them that they were the problem but I also needed a job.

My condo used to be nice. When they marketed it to us originally they had a pond at the entrance stocked with fish and a mated pair of ducks in it. They were actively marketing to people from more urban areas who maybe wouldn’t notice a few more trees missing. Soon they were lax about the rules about big parties, about fireworks, about campers in the yard. The opioid crisis hit, then the pandemic, then more recently the rents went through the roof. More people than ever camp here now, and because they keep moving them out of more urban areas they have brought new species of rats with them. No more do we see ducks in the pond because of the people urinating and defecating outdoors. They try to blame a bird feeder that’s been there twenty years for a more recent phenomena brought on by all these other causes. Do these bird haters even know rats eat at night?

We have an ordinance against outdoor feeding, but our cases were thrown out because the wording does not directly include the feeding of cats. So, we reworked the wording. Now we have national organizations accusing us of trying to kill cats, but these people fail to understand that irresponsible feeding can lead to unexpected consequences. I would say the majority of our residents are opposed to feeding like this, but very few show up to meetings pertaining to this new ordinance so the only people who show up are those against it. Then I get thirty calls a day blaming the city for causing the rat problem. It’s a wonderful cycle.

Send her to prison and feed her a strict birdseed diet :)

[@dbdnrbdb]

The on-site reporter looked like she was going to jump through the camera lens.

[@tonythedonluciano]

She's done this on purpose! 😒

[@RobbyZander]

For some reason I am picturing the lady who helped the kid lost in NY being chased by 2 strangers during Christmas.

[@alanlangley7246]

sweep it up when she pours it on the ground )

[@myairspace3xx]

Take out the bird seed lady.

[@ronnieking3848]

Just pour baking soda on top of the birdseed...rats cannot process gas.

[@artkillsevil]

how does this women afford this bird seed

[@bchandle]

Wait you are telling me I can spread 100 pounds of bird seed anywhere in San Francisco without penalty? Can we all spread bird feed in front of city hall or the police department and see if the same thing happens? What a strange city we live in. Smh

[@gustavju4686]

Funny as cats eat birds and rats.

[@d4ngerd4n]

one day someone is just going to poison those piles and solve the problem lol

[@voiceofraisin241]

Figure out where she is buying the seed and cut off her supply.

[@InsertTitleHere-]

The bubonic plague never went extinct, it pops up every once in a while. If this is true and not dramatized, we'll be hearing about the black death in SF soon 😐

[@PUPIMUMIP]

Lmao birds in some ways are literally rat with wings

[@comelonaa4716]

😂this reminds me of a lady in Palo Alto she dumps bird seed and bread for the birds and it attracts pigeons , seagulls and crows ! When she sees someone see her she picks up all the pieces of bread 😂 she does it secretly usually

[@marolatv618]

Why do people think that they are feeding these wild birds? Those wild animals are going to find a way to survive whether you exist or not.

[@Supersquishyawesomeness]

My solution is going to sound a bit harsh but if she is going to dump it, render it inedible. I’m sure there are plenty of chemicals that would discourage the animals rather than invite them.

[@drowningpooralice5505]

This is a problem all over California. Middle age bleeding heart women that leave cookie sheets full of cat food in parking lots, many valley towns have huge feral cat 😸 problems on top of rats. Well fed cats don't chase rats. There are direct correlations between the prevalence of rats and feral cat populations.

[@donotsupportterroristgroups]

They cannot allow a town to go down under to protect one, that menace to society has to go. It's for the greater good.

[@viktor2915]

Im not american but even i know that city went down under long time ago. It was allready disgusting

I don't buy the lady had 100 grand in damage from rats. That's ridiculous.

[@erikanders3343]

not rats, just cleaning up the seed.

[@gtron7692]

Jeeze! Who can afford to give out so much bird seeds these days?! That stuff is pricey!
