Neighbors in a Fifth Ward neighborhood said they want the rodent and fly infestation coming from a community garden to go.

Thomas said he’s had a fly infestation on his hands for the last two years. Thomas lives in the 2200 block of Leffingwell Street. He said the pests, which have included rodents, were coming from a neighborhood community garden next door. The garden was a passion project of former Houston City Council Member Jerry Davis to bring food to the neighborhood.

“It’s not open to the community,” Thomas said. “He’s been using it to store chickens and things in there and that’s what’s causing a lot of problems.” KPRC2 spoke to Davis as he visited the property, which he said is being leased by the Houston Land Bank. Davis said he could have done a better job with the upkeep of the property, but disputes the garden is what was attracting the pests.
