A mum says her children are living in fear of 'cat-sized' rats in their street. Residents claim they have been plagued by the rodent infestation for months - and even poison has failed to get rid of them.
Yasmin Rakha, 40, said she is still finding dead rodents inside her house in Fleeston Street in Rusholme, south Manchester. She claimed that despite contacting her local council, the issue has yet to be fixed and her children, aged three and five, are now terrified of the rats.
She told the MEN: "Cat-sized rats run along the street, alleyway, fences, and die inside our house - my daughters are frightened. Because of this I refuse to let my children play outside, and we won’t leave doors open ever."
