Work is taking place to deal with an ‘out of control’ rat problem in one area of Merseyside.
Knowsley councillors, council officers, representatives from local housing association Livv Housing and United Utilities were all out in force on the streets of Page Moss in a bid to tackle a situation which some residents say has felt “out of control.”
Along Page Moss Avenue, councillors knocked on doors in one of the borough’s rodent hotspots as people handed over bins chewed up by rodents, while engineers from United Utilities got to work bating sewers in the neighbourhood.
