Glad we only get little mice up here. Even the bin strikes a while back didn’t seem to make any drastic impacts.
I’ll take a lil cheesy boi over one of those cities infested with roaches and bedbugs top to bottom anyday.
Maybe because we’re dumping food everywhere?
It’s not exactly A Plague Tale: Requiem, is it? Even in Birmingham.

Fucking long article can be summarised to a single paragraph of useful info. What a waste of time. This is why it’s increasingly difficult to read mainstream media editorials…
There are many possible reasons for this. Niall Gallagher, technical manager at the BPCA, says our growing appetite for fast food (bins are overflowing with fast food waste), the fact some councils collect rubbish less frequently, as well as road and building works disturbing the sewer network, all contribute.
But there is evidence that rising temperatures might also be at play.

Rats love cocaine. They will stop eating just to get more cocaine. Have they thought of trying cocaine?
That’s an expensive way to bait a trap, and you’ll end up just catching bankers
I’m not seeing a problem here
This is how we get skaven
Really, UK? You really waited hundreds of years to tackle this issue?
