title: [Rat extermination in Grozny during emergency situation in the year of 2000].
abstract: The main factors leading to the great amounts of rats and small myo-morphous rodents in Grozny were the prolonged absence of deratization measures carried out on the necessary scope, the destruction of buildings, which led to the loss of their impenetrability for rodents and the ensuing spread of rats and mice in all habitats, the storage of foodstuffs in temporary stores which did not ensure their protection from rodents. The present article deals with the organizational measures aimed at carrying out deratization works in Grozny after the completion of the antiterrorist operation, as well as the tactics and methods of such works under the conditions of extreme situation.
