The Sanitation Service Authority (SSA) has urged the public to properly dispose of dead animals reaching out to their Pet Patrol services for assistance.

SSA Public Relations Officer Carl Padmore urged the public to report roadkill via 262-5326/27 while homeowners can have an animal removed for a small fee. Farmers are guided to reach out to the Ministry of Health and Wellness for the removal of other animals.

“A lot of people are not doing this. They prefer to dump the remains of the animals in gullies and the remains of them in other places,” Padmore said.
