The city has begun putting poison rat bait into sewers throughout the French Quarter and will fan out from there as rodent populations take to the streets to find food that has now become scarce due to the coronavirus response.
A viral video by Charles Marsala showing more than a dozen rats congregating in the middle of a vacant Bourbon Street last week shed light on an emerging phenomenon: With many restaurants closed, rats accustomed to getting food further out of public view are having to forage more widely, and empty streets lined lined with residential garbage cans are the next closes source.
What we have seen is these (social-distancing) practices are driving our rodents crazy," Cantrell said on Sunday, addressing the importance of protecting the local homeless population that share the streets with the increasingly brazen vermin.
"There are pathogens in these rodents, she said. "Fortunately … we don’t have many disease cases actually related to rodents, but the potential is there"

My moms office is near the Marigny and she said the drifters she’d always see on North Peters gave up and left since there are no tourists.

I always tell them I bet you $20 I can.
Usually they move on to the next person.
