A young mum filmed a rat stealing her child's food after the little girl dropped a biscuit. Kia Selway said that her home on Merthyr Tydfil's Gurnos estate is now so overrun with rodents that her five-year-old daughter is even afraid to fall asleep at night.
The 23-year-old, who's lived at the address for more than four years, described how little Aria had been eating chocolate bourbon biscuits in the bath one day when she dropped one onto the floor. A large rat materialised from behind the pedestal of the hand basin and whisked it away - but not before she managed to catch the moment on camera.
"I've also got video of them scuttling around the kitchen," said Kia, who's a tenant of Merthyr Valleys Homes housing association. "In one clip you can see a large rat running along the skirting and disappearing behind the washing machine.
