In footage released by French channel BFMTV, rats can be seen running around between boxes in a warehouse in the Saran district where Amazon's products, including food items, are stored.

The images show dead mouse pups among the boxes containing food materials, and noticeable contamination in certain areas.

This ongoing problem, which has not been resolved for months despite warnings, raises concerns about the health and safety of both employees and customers.

A staff member from the company working at the warehouse expressed fear of contracting diseases and stated that the authorities have not shown much concern about the situation.

Jean-Sylvere Guillon, a union representative for the employees, commented that the measures taken to address the mice infestation in the warehouse are insufficient, emphasizing the need for more effective solutions.

Amazon, on the other hand, claimed that their pest control team has worked at the warehouse multiple times and ensured that no packages in contact with mice were sent to customers.
