New bins near Philippa Berry's home have attracted rodents
An Edinburgh woman is locked in a battle with the council after claiming newly installed bins led to a rodent infestation in her home. Philippa Berry, 58, who lives in Dalry Cemetery Lodge House, has said that Edinburgh City Council and Friends of Dalry Cemetery were wrong to install five bins outside her property.
Philippa told Edinburgh Live: “They put five bins in, and as a result I got mice. I asked the council to put one bin there and I was told no, you can’t do that because of wheelchair access. A report from the pest control company which Philippa contacted at the time reads: “Possible reason for mice in property may be down to increased rat activity at bins outside kitchen window area, fresh rat evidence was found at the bins.”
