@cbcbritishcolumbia: The chair of Vancouver's district parent advisory council says parents need more transparency from the school board about the scope of rodent infestations in schools. Melanie Cheng says she was shocked by documents obtained by CBC News detailing hundreds of complaints about mice and rats. #rats #mouse #cbcnews #bc #britishcolumbia #vancouver #schools #rodents

It’s because the province banned poison, we have a rat problem in our townhouse complex and they think snap traps are going to fit it…

Try being in the hospital and having a mouse climb on your bed at night. That happened to my mom

Dear DPAC Chair. Elementary schools no longer have hot lunch programs, band, librarians , etc., etc. and you are worried about mice.

I’m screaming laughing at what makes the news in BC💀 dead mice/rats made y’all realize public schools/services are underfunded and filthy. Idk…if they aren’t even caring about school buildings where kids go to learn, imagine how the living conditions are when those kids leave school, take transit, and go to their overly priced small homes. 🙃

Our small nonprofit pays orkin close to $600 a month and it seems like all they do is check traps and replace sticky pads. We have rats chewing up the walls in the ceiling. Rodents are off the charts out of control. Everywhere.

I’m surprised if there is a school without a mouse problem. My school definitely has mice every where. We find their droppings all the time.
