Just in time for the unofficial start of summer, the rat race heads east—to the Hamptons, that is.
The beach set of the Hamptons are really good at keeping things they don’t like out of view: chain retail, cell towers, and the less monied, to name a few. But the residents of the South Fork have finally met their match in the form of vermin, as the scourge of New York City has punctured the summer hot spot’s idyllic veneer with a new reality: rats.has an interloper caused this much collective horror across the oceanfront towns, hamlets, and villages, upending the social order.
But for others, the scurrying has come from inside the house. Another resident who asked not to be named shudders when she thinks about her recent rental, where she got late-night Nest motion alerts from the kitchen. “We would see them on camera running around,” she said. “It’s embarrassing to have rats,” she said. “And disgusting.”isn’t surprised East Enders are losing their minds over rat sightings. “There is a socioeconomic class that people associate with vermin,” he said.
It’s true. The rat sightings have caused outrage and finger pointing—in true Hamptons fashion the blame game is strong. How can there possibly be rats in the Hamptons? How did they even get here?
