Rats as big as cats have been scouring the streets of Birmingham, breaking holes in walls and ravaging bins, reports claim.
Pest control has gone into overdrive to tackle more than 5,100 sightings of the enormous animals in the city just one year.
Colin Watts, managing the crackdown, said he saw a two-foot rodent as 'wide as a brick'.

Is this down to inefficient refuse collection ?

partly,,,,,

and imo much to do with the fact that each main street probably has about 10-20 different takeaway shops.  plus people buy a takeaway, eat part of it going along then just tosh the remaining garbage onto the floor.

wtf do people expect to happen?

Birmingham eh?

Don't tell me - they're having this problem in Manchester, Leicester and a few other cities too?
