A severe mouse plague is overwhelming towns north-east of Perth, with residents describing roads covered in mice and infestations in homes and businesses.
Locals and farmers say current baits are ineffective and are calling for urgent approval to use stronger rodent poisons — a bureaucratic process that is dragging on.
The local MP says in the meantime, people are leaving town.
If every mouse immediately fucked, gave birth, and died then that would be worrying, but the point I made 3 times already is that the mice consume finite resources which reduce dramatically via spay and neuter.
