Rodents are revolting, repulsive, repugnant and nothing is happening to prevent them from growing.

Rats are wandering the streets as rubbish is just waiting to be eaten, which makes the rats feel they are in paradise.

The council only cleans the streets once a week and during that week rubbish builds up to which, therefore, rats are attracted.

Rats usually come out at night which is why many people are unaware they live in a rat-trap.

I have had an encounter with a rat, by which I was outraged.

I was horrified to see how big it was, how dirty it was, how unhygienic it was.

Many people agree with me when I say rats are revolting, however, people feel sorry for the creatures and feed them.

Can we stop this? Rodents are breeding fast.

If we don't take action how long will it be until disease spreads?

Although we need the council's help, we can start to prevent rats' breeding faster by not dropping litter.

I know that's what everyone says but we have to.

If we drop any litter we are helping the rats feel more comfortable in our society.

Do you want to live in a rat-trap?
