The clean-up operation is expected to trap and kill the rodents over a two-day period, beginning late Sunday and continuing until Wednesday morning.<\/p>\n<div data-align=\"\" data-msid=\"113803272\" data-type=\"image\" class=\"midImg clearfix\">\n<figure class=\"imgBg\"><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<h2>Operation Plan: Funnel Technology and Toxic Baits<\/h2>\n<p>The JDA has devised a strategy using modern &#8220;funnel-technology&#8221; to eradicate the rats. Special teams will prepare pesticide-laced baits containing fodder, zinc phosphate, and edible oil. These baits will be placed inside funnels and positioned in rat holes to prevent chemical spills. Ten teams, consisting of three members each, will carry out the operation discreetly, without the use of loud or disruptive methods.<\/p>\n<h2>Damage to Historical Sites<\/h2>\n<p>&#8220;These rats are not only digging holes and destroying green cover at Ramniwas Bagh but also damaging historic structures, including walls of Albert Hall,&#8221; a JDA official stated. The infestation has been partially attributed to nearby temples, a dargah, and street food vendors, which leave behind piles of waste, creating an ideal environment for the rodents.<\/p>\n<p>As the JDA moves ahead with its clean-up efforts, the public is advised to avoid these locations until the operation is complete, ensuring the safety and preservation of Jaipur\u2019s historic landmarks.<\/p>\n<p><!--\/include_growfast.cms?pagename=article&skipcss=1potime:2--><\/p>\n<style><![CDATA[\n    \t    #sr_widget.onDemand p, #stock_pro.onDemand p{font-size: 14px;line-height: 1.28;}\n    \t    .onDemand .live_stock{left:17px;padding:1px 3px 1px 5px;font-size:12px;font-weight:600;line-height:18px;top:9px}\n    \t    #sr_widget.onDemand .sr_desc{margin:0 auto 0;}\n    \t    #sr_widget.onDemand .sr_desc{color: #024d99;margin-top:10px;}\n    \t    #sr_widget.onDemand .crypto .live_stock .lb-icon{8px 6px 5px 3px !important}\n    \t    #sr_widget.crypto.onDemand a.text{border-bottom:1px solid #ccc;padding-bottom:5px;display:block;width:100%}\n    \t    #sr_widget.onDemand .sr_desc .text p, #stock_pro.onDemand .sr_desc .text p{font-size:12px;font-weight:400;}\n    \t]]><\/style>\n<p><!--\/article_liveblog.cms?msid=105115637&pos=botpotime:1--><\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/economictimes.indiatimes.com\/news\/india\/jaipurs-albert-hall-museum-shuts-down-for-two-days-due-to-rats-jda-to-use-modern-tech-for-cleanup\/articleshow\/113802816.cms\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Jaipur Development Authority (JDA) is set to tackle the rodent infestation plaguing two of the Pink City&#8217;s prominent tourist spots\u2014Albert Hall Museum and Ramniwas Bagh.
