00:00I think I've definitely seen an increase in the number of rats being around and I think a lot of that is to do with the regularity of them picking up the bins. I think that's got an awful lot to do. And it's a throwaway society. People throw away all sorts. So the rats are just sitting there waiting.
00:18I haven't seen any problems with pests although my neighbours complain that I've got a hut and they get rats in their garden. But unfortunately I've got a cat. Fortunately I've got a cat so we don't get any rats. And if you point out to people if you stop feeding the birds in summer the rats will go away which I was told by one of these people who gets rid of rats. What do you call them?
00:43Although we never had any in the town I think it could be the position. But I don't know if it's the same in towns whether there's a big infestation or not. And could that be because of rubbish being left around and the amount of litter and fly tipping that there is?
