'Do they want me to be standing making dinner with the rats looking in the window?'
A mum living in Belfast said her life has been left in "turmoil" after her garden has become "overrun" with rats.
Since then, Jenny has been dealing with a rat infestation that she said has wreaked havoc on her garden, led to her seeing rats running along her windowsill, and left her two disabled children too scared to go into their own kitchen. "My son's wee hot tub was bought for him by a fund, and it's not something I would be able to afford to replace.
Jenny said the ongoing issues are having an impact on the everyday life of her and her two children. She said she's hoping to get a transfer to a different house, adding the current situation is an "ongoing battle." "Do they want me to be standing making dinner with the rats looking in the window? My son is upstairs asking me if I'll go downstairs and get him a drink as he's too afraid to go into his own kitchen. It's just not fair.
"We advised the tenant to contact pest control to remove any pests and we understand they attended they property. Meanwhile, we had arranged to remove the decking and carry out remedial work.
