In India 4000 Rats Killed In Government Hospita

The 950-bed hospital, Maharaja Yeshwantrao,
housed 14,000 rats before the Laxmi Fumigation
and Pest Control Service was able to eliminate
some of them.
Exterminators at a public hospital in India have
killed over 4000 rats within the space of two days.
The 950-bed hospital, Maharaja Yeshwantrao ,
housed 14,000 rats before the Laxmi Fumigation
and Pest Control Service was able to eliminate
some of them.
According to the company’s CEO, Sanjay
Karmakar:
“We have only tackled a part of the grounds so far
they are riddled with rodent burrows, at least 1,000
of them.”
“Each would have four to eight rodents, we have
not started on the buildings yet, the pest control
firm is baiting the rodents with different food each
day.”
“One day, it is peanuts and clarified butter, another
day its roasted chickpeas, potato cakes and so
on.”
“If one of a family dies after eating something, the
other rats will not touch the same food, so we
have to keep changing the menu.”
The hospital, which is in the Indore area of
Southern Delhi, is said to still be home to over
10,000 rats.
Officials reportedly said that the rat invasion was
brought about by poor refuse disposal in the
hospital.
