RTÉ has invested €5,400 over the past year to combat a persistent rodent problem within its Dublin 4 complex. Reports revealed multiple mouse sightings and droppings in areas such as the creche, library, and canteen, leading to the involvement of extermination services like Rentokil. Inspectors recommended preventive measures, including sealing gaps under doors. Despite a proactive inspection schedule, reports indicated that rodents continued to pose challenges, necessitating regular checks and follow-ups to ensure effective pest control measures are in place.
A spokesman said RTÉ had an ongoing contract for regular checks and inspections, indicating active measures being taken to mitigate the rodent infestation.
During April, an exterminator twice found evidence of rodent activity at a rubbish compactor area, although a follow-up later that month said the problem had been resolved.
In late March, Rentokil was called out after a 'mouse sighting' in the main canteen, highlighting ongoing challenges with rodent control.
Inspection logs show that there had been reports of mouse sightings and droppings across multiple areas including the creche, kitchen, and library.
