Harlem stands out more than the subway stations more than any other neighborhood in the five town, and new data appears.
Two subway stations in the neighborhood have got the best of mice viewers on a popular application over the past thirty days.
Street Station 116, which serves lines 2 and 3, was named the most of the Big Apple Centers for January, according to App Transit.
The application of navigation is based on self-reported data-which makes the only information of the information for the underground mice scenes.
The mice were reported on 42 % of the metro trips, according to the data.
Last month, 100 % of Tipsters reported that they had seen between one and two rodents while waiting on the 116th street platform.
None of the requests about seeing mice zero last month.
“This is not surprising. Freddy Purdes, who used the metro station, said,” We have always had. “
“There is a trash everywhere. People are always jumping [the turnstyles]. “It is neglected,” he said, referring to a plastic bag full of rotting fruits that left the bench.
For Bordes, he said he was only shocked by the absence of more scenes of the reported mice – the resident of Harlem estimated that he sees up to five mice when he goes under the ground.
Melissa Kerman, 27, agreed, saying that she sees at least one mouse every time she visited the station.
“If you look for a long time enough, you will see one,” Melissa Kerman, 27, told the Post newspaper just a few moments before one of the creatures went through the tracks.
Kerman, who works for preparatory democracy near the station, was surprised that the 116th Street Station ranked first – the center of street 125, which serves lines 4, 5 and 6, “much worse”.
This spot, which is less than one mile, has acquired the second most of the Big Apple subway station.
Although he had less user reports than 116 Street, Tipsters see more mice on average- while 54 % of people have been about one or two mice, 29 % saw “a lot”. Only 17 % mentioned mice -free visits to the station.
The high presence of mice in both Harlem's stations is an accusation of a little interest in the neighborhood, according to Tandy Wilson.
“Sanitation does not care about Harlem at all,” said Wilson, 35, adding that she discovers three mice on average at stations.
Wilson, who was “born and raised” in Harlem, claimed that the circumstances had deteriorated only over the decades-even despite the initiatives the city's lead to clean the neighborhood that was dismantled.
Harlem is only one of four “mice relief areas”, an effort launched nearly two years ago to inform Vermin.
The neighborhood gave dozens of extermination employees and a set of equipment to reduce mice groups, such as traps, fumigation machines and “mice panels”, which stiff the earth to prevent expatriates.
However, none of the mitigation efforts extend to the metro. Officials confirmed that the transit systems are not part of the city field.
The city only follows the scenes of mice above the ground, and like transit, dependent on self -reported data. About 1000 calls were made in January for Firmin reports – most of them came out of Brooklyn. For individual neighborhoods, Harlem went out to most of the scenes.
MTA, which oversees the metro, did not immediately ask the post on the post about mice mitigating efforts.
City officials have repeatedly claimed that mice residents had decreased across the five neighborhoods last year.
Last week, the city's sewage Ministry told the city that the mice views after December decreased by 23 % compared to the previous year, and 25 % in January.
