A FURIOUS woman has blasted her neighbour for attracting rats.
The young woman took to social media as she filmed her neighbour making the problem worse, but it seemed the internet was divided as to who was in the wrong.
In the clip, the woman’s older neighbour could be seen with multiple packs of lunch meat in her garden.
She could be seen ripping them up into smaller pieces and flinging them around her garden.
But the woman was furious as she had already asked her to stop.
In the clip, she revealed she told her neighbour: “There seems to be a rat problem.
“Shall we maybe try to feed the birds, bird seeds only?”
However, it seemed her suggestion had fallen on deaf ears as her neighbour was still throwing out lunch meat.
While she was trying to feed the birds, her neighbour revealed it was also attracting rats into everyone’s garden.
The next day, she filmed her neighbour’s garden yet again, with much of the meat untouched on the grass waiting for the rats to come.
She was clearly frustrated with her neighbour using the hashtag ‘garden wars’ in the description of the video.
But it seemed that not everyone was on her side.
The video went viral on her TikTok account @yourfaveginger90 with over 480k views and 6,400 likes.
But people were torn in the comments, some said her neighbour could do what she wanted in her garden, while others offered revenge tactics.
One person wrote: “She can do what she wants in her OWN garden. More people should help our fragile local nature.”
Another commented: “Lovely woman doing what she likes in her own garden.”
“It’s her garden. Unfortunately, it’s up to her what she does in it,” penned a third.
The Top Five Reasons Neighbours Squabble
One study by Compare the Market revealed the top reason British neighbour’s argue
- Broken fences – top of the board was broken fences and whose responsibility it was to fix it
- Parking: one of the leading drivers of neighbour disputes, with 54.1 per cent of people having issues with people parking in front of their house, parking bay or driveway
- Trees – complaints about a neighbour’s tree cracking your garden path was also common with nearly half of participants finding it frustrating
- Bin wars – outdoor bin etiquette continues to ignite the most furious debates between neighbours
- Nosy Neighbours – some people have their eyes and ears at the ready to have a peek causing problems for others
Meanwhile a fourth said: “The same experience would send me into psychosis.”
“Well I’d get loads of traps and throw the corpses in her garden,” claimed a fifth.
Someone else added: “My neighbour was doing this and I had huge rats running round my garden with small kids. Council and environmental health spoke to neighbour…..it stopped!”
