When Michelle Phillips moved into her new property in East Didsbury in February 2021, she hoped it would be the start of a new chapter in her life after moving out of her previous house due to a squirrel infestation.
But when she got the keys to her front door, she realised the situation she had now found herself living in was going to be far from ideal.
Michelle, 54, was moved out of her previous home after an extensive pest problem during the first lockdown which saw squirrels overtaking her attic and keeping her awake all night by the sounds of scurrying and scratching. She said she lost her job in retail due in part to the sleep deprivation caused by the issues.
