Frustrated residents who are seeing "rats the size of cats" running in gardens say they are unable to leave their homes.
The ECHO has previously reported on several concerns of rats spotted in Page Moss, as residents say they are "overrun" with the "large" rodents. But one local, who has wished to not be named, said something "needs to be done" as they have been left unable to sit in their own garden.
When asked why they should be "made to pay for pest control" the council said due to cuts in funding, they could no longer afford to offer the service for free. But added this was cheaper than elsewhere and work is continuing to tackle the issue.
