Rats have been a problem for the school for over a year. Parents are worried about their children’s safety and the potential health risks.
In the past year, there have been more than 100 rat sightings at Tippit Middle School in Philadelphia. This has caused parents to worry about their children’s safety and the potential health risks that these rats may bring. Rats can cause diseases such as rabies, leptospirosis, and hantavirus when they come into contact with humans.
In response to this issue, Tippit Middle School has set up traps around the school grounds to try and get rid of these rats. The school also plans on spreading rat poison around campus in order to kill them off completely.
