I'm totally shocked by this!

So pleased that I don't shop there

I'm sure there are rodent problems everywhere, even Harrods. I've seen a mouse scuttle across the floor in my local supermarket.

OMG! This is my local store that I shop at every week. They are also rubbish with their tesco.com deliveries, two failed deliveries from them, I had to actually go to the store and pick up the food myself. Also, special offers and bogofs run out all the time and god help you if you want to buy veg as the shelves are routinely bare, prob all the mice eating the produce!!!!

It is in the news-the local newspaper for local people who will be affected by this local news story.

Personally, I am not at all interested in what must be a fairly routine occurence about 100 miles away.

And to save everyone else the bother of having to click the link to see what the shock horror is about:

The charges include failing to have adequate procedures in place to deal with pests and failing to “pest proof” against rodents.

My title was why wasn't this on the news because it wasn't on the news.
I spotted it on a news website. You may not be interested on what's happening 100 miles away but I'm sure that there are plenty of people that are.

Personally I think that mouse droppings and nesting being found on the shop floor is a concern to anyone that shops in Tesco

I've actually seen the security guards and Tesco supervisor standing outside looking at mice that were just outside the main door of my local Tesco Extra.

You are completely overreacting.

Rodents are found everywhere. There is probably one within a few hundred metres of where you are sat right now ...

Too right they are found everywhere, try working on a hospital ward.:eek:

I'd much rather shop in the local tesco full of rodents than some of the "humans" that frequent the store. Rats are a damn sight more cleaner.

in the uk there are like 75 million rodents so chill out!
