Henderson FAQ

Can I report a neighbor's rat problem?

Yes. Use Henderson Click2Fix or call Code Enforcement. Restaurant complaints go to SNHD instead, which inspects and may downgrade the letter grade.

Does the city set bait?

The city does not bait private property. SNHD vector control may bait public right-of-way or storm drains in active outbreak areas.

Las Vegas FAQ

Who do I call about rats in my Las Vegas neighborhood?

Report private-property rodent problems to SNHD vector control through snhd.info; report public right-of-way issues to Las Vegas 311 or code enforcement.

Can my landlord be cited if my apartment has mice?

Yes. Property owners are responsible for habitability and rodent control; SNHD or city code enforcement can cite the owner if abatement is ignored.
