约翰内斯堡的大鼠危机由于废物管理不善和缺乏持续的控制努力而继续存在。 Johannesburg's rat crisis continues due to poor waste management and lack of sustained control efforts.

尽管过去做出了努力,但约翰内斯堡的老鼠问题仍然存在,专家们指出,非正规住区的废物管理不善是主要驱动因素。 Johannesburg's rat problem persists despite past efforts, with experts citing poor waste management in informal settlements as a key driver. 最近利用同位素分析进行的一项研究发现,褐色大鼠在亚历山德拉和坦比萨占主导地位,在比勒陀利亚大学地区有黑鼠,在Hammanskraal有入侵的亚洲家庭大鼠,所有这些大鼠都大量食用人类食物废物。 A recent study using isotope analysis found brown rats dominate in Alexandra and Tembisa, black rats in the University of Pretoria area, and invasive Asian house rats in Hammanskraal, all feeding heavily on human food waste. 尽管该市声称持续致力于控制鼠类,但许多方案已经放弃,致命方法仍然有争议。 While the city claims ongoing commitment to rodent control, many programs have been abandoned, and lethal methods remain controversial. 缺乏解决废物、生境和公共教育问题的协调、可持续解决方案,继续阻碍进展。 The lack of coordinated, sustainable solutions addressing waste, habitat, and public education continues to hinder progress.
