The offices of Forensic Science Ireland have been plagued by infestations of mice with staff at one stage being asked to stay at home so the pests could be dealt with.
An email said: “Staff were asked not to attend the office on Tuesday … until pest control had been in. Pest control attended the office on the morning of the 23 rd and staff were advised they could return to [their desks].” An email said: “I have just had a report of suspected evidence of mice in the fingerprint admin HEO [higher executive officer] office. Facilities have been notified of this and [staff member] is going to make a follow-up call this afternoon.By March, the Director General of Forensic Science Ireland Chris Enright was hopeful the ongoing war with the mice had been won.
“He filled the opening with wire mesh and foam. He is confident that there is no other access hole in the Forensic Science Ireland areas.” “We have had no sightings of mice for at least five days,” said an email. “Could the deep clean of the office be organised now?”“As per phone call,” said an email, “I wish to inform you, mice have been active this morning in an office leaving a number of droppings on the desk.”
An email said: “The tendency is to leave bins out in the corridor at the end of the day for the cleaners to empty. I don’t think they are emptied until the following morning.Later in June, a “near miss” was recorded in the service’s health and safety log with concerns being raised that mice might be using ivy growing on the outside of the building to gain access.
