Local playground treated for rodent infestation
SOUTH DUBLIN County Council are currently carrying out a treatment of Ballycragh Park for rat infestation.
At this month’s Rathfarnham Area Committee meeting, Councillor Paul Foley asked the Chief Executive “for an update on the baiting of the Ballycragh Park playground where a rat infestation is an ongoing issue?"
The Council replied that their pest control specialist contractor has been engaged to treat Ballycragh Park for rodents in response to complaints of a rodent infestation in the area.
The Council stated that the contractor does not “consider the level of consumption to be unusual in this type of park setting and does not therefore believe that there is a major problem of infestation”.
Baiting will continue until such time as the issue has been resolved.
