A Scots mum claims she was forced to flee her rat-infested home after the rodents made her 'physically ill'. Susan Cardno, from Paisley, was so desperate to get away from the rats that she moved into a homeless unit.
The 42-year-old said she raised the issue with Renfrewshire Council several times and despite them sending out pest control the problem "only got worse". Susan's 16-year-old daughter has moved in with her dad whilst her mum seeks shelter at the homeless unit in Paisley.
Speaking to Glasgow Live, Susan spoke of her torment saying: "I noticed it when I moved in over a year and a half ago, I looked out my back window and there were about 12 rats scurrying around the bin. I was only new so didn't know they were inside the building too.
