A mum-of-one claimed she has developed asthma from living in a black mould-ridden council flat with her seven-year-old son for almost 10 years.
Sonia, 48, said she's been desperate to move out after the mould left significant parts of the walls completely black, as well as an infestation of crawling ants and other pests.
To tackle the pest problems, Sonia said she had taken it upon herself to fill in cracks where the ants creep in from, as well as using tape on multiple light switches and other points in the property.
