The General Services Administration (GSA) in Texas has been overrun with a rodent issue. The Fritz G. Lanham Federal Building in Fort Worth is being affected by rodents because of an increase in tenants, according to Newsweek.

Disease is the top issue. According to the Centers for Disease, Control and Prevention,Hantaviruses are a family of viruses which can cause serious illnesses and death. These viruses cause diseases like hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS) and hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS).
They are spread mainly by rodents and are not spread from person-to-person. One of the best ways to prevent them is to keep them from entering under doorways.
