A Merseyside borough is "over run with huge rats" in a problem that is "out of control", residents say.
The problem of rats in Page Moss has almost become synonymous with the area in recent years. People have spoken out on a regular basis over infestations in their homes and rats wandering the streets in “broad daylight" and described them as being "as big as cats".
However, despite work by Knowsley Council and partners to tackle the issue earlier this month, frustrated residents say there is still a problem and more needs to be done. Resident John Carine told the ECHO that the whole place is "over run" but it's not just in Page Moss.
