According to the Blaby District Council, there have been allegations of potential rat poison left in several local parks, including Oakfield and Bouskell Park. A spokeswoman urged people to exercise caution and stated that the authorities will be inspecting the sites and alerting the local parish councils to the problem.
On a local Facebook page, a worried homeowner reported that their dog got sick after strolling along Countesthorpe Way to Oakfield Park. They claimed to have observed a “bright pink rat poison like substance” and that they had to take their pet to the veterinarian immediately. Fortunately, their dog was unharmed, the posting said.
“We have received reports of what is allegedly rat poison dumped in a number of parks, including Bouskell Park and Oakfield,” a Blaby District Council official stated. We will investigate the reports and inspect the places where we own and operate parks because this may endanger other animals.
“We are also contacting the Parish Councils involved who manage the other parks to alert them and advise they also be vigilant and take action if anything is found.”
