A Dead Mouse And Rodent Droppings Lead To Closure Orders For Laois Businesses

The FSAI have served three orders to business to Laois.

The discovery of a dead mouse behind a bar is one of the reasons behind the closure of three Laois businesses by the Food Safety Authority of Ireland.

Three businesses in the county were served notice by the FSAI, with one having since been lifted.

The mouse was found behind the main bar of the Thatch in Killenard.

While rodent droppings were also discovered on shelves and food preparation surfaces.

The pub has since re-opened.

The Lunch Bag operating out of Timahoe GAA was found to have rodent droppings on several surfaces, unclean food equipment and no hand washing faclities.

While the food premises at Portarlington's Summergrove House also had unclean equipment with built up dust, dirt and rodent droppings on food containers.

Cluttered work stations and several dead insects were also observed on the windowsills.
