A pregnant mum living in council housing says a bed bug infestation in her home is so bad that she woke up one morning with a "track of bites" along her baby bump.
Shelley Bedford, a Plymouth local who is 32 weeks pregnant, wants Plymouth Community Homes to “take responsibility” for leaving her family in 'awful' conditions for months on end, Plymouth Live reports.
Shelley is not the only family that has been affected by pest control issues. At least seven other properties in the block have been 'riddled' with bed bugs for nine weeks and people have been suffering bites - including a three-year-old.
