Rats are living in and around food waste bin they’ve chewed hole on bottom right corner and are constantly in and out of it , I’ve just watch for 2min and seen at least 4adult rats and smaller babies, now ther running back and forth to Lingfield house , there also on grassed area behind food waste bins there got to be a large nest all the pavement has lifted and broken , there also a waste bin there that needs to be removed rats are jumping in there too , never in the latest 6-8 months have I seen anyone clean it all needs to be removed and deep cleaned, the children play on that grass area they’ve got to be a priority , if it’s left any longer it’s gonna be hard to clear ,
