The Council is currently carrying out rodent control works in Queens Park.
Regular users will probably have noticed a few of our brown furry foes scuttling about in recent weeks.
It appears some unscrupulous fast food outlets have taken to dumping food waste in the ponds and other areas of the park, attracting the little blighters.
As the population is quite widespread, it’s advisable to keep dogs on leads and children well supervised while the baits are out.
Good to know. I saw one at the pond on Wednesday, munching the ducks’ bread!
