Default Poundland cellotaped food that had been gnawed by rats

Poundland store used cellotape to re-seal bags of sweets and biscuits that had been gnawed by rats and stacked them on shelves

Inspectors found rat droppings in food packets that had been taped back together
Pest control had visited the store five days earlier

This branch of money-saving chain Poundland
in the Whitgift Centre in Croydon
was discovered re-shelving food
contaminated with animal dropping
and taping packets chewed by mice



If you visit these stores avoid any products with
cellotape added to the seal.

Wrong they were nibbled by Rats or Mice.



Also many of the food products they sell at a pound are 70p
in AsdaWalmart or Morrisons.



But on Ipad Stands
and Audio cables
they are far cheaper than maplins

Yes but Rats in the Store

It will be Front Page in their Local.


Poundland are stupid
