A Salford family say their lives have become a "horror movie" after rats chewed holes through a bedroom ceiling. The family in Boothstown say they have been tormented by months of "horrific night" listening to rodents scuttling around the loft above them, and been left without help from their housing association.
Rebecca has lived in the ForHousing property with her nine-year-old son and older teenage daughter since August 2021, but said she first reported the problem in February this year and was ignored.
During that time holes were chewed through her bedroom ceiling in a cupboard area, and she said the loft "stinks" because of the rats running around up there.
The holes were repaired after the Local Democracy Reporting Service contacted ForHousing about the problem on Friday (September 6).
