Dear Editor,

I write to you about Mossman’s Botanic Garden site.

In years gone by the proposed Botanic Garden site was regularly slashed but now (allegedly) it hasn't been slashed since October last year.

That's six months of growth where the rubbish is now over two and a half metres tall, which is now the perfect breeding ground for all kinds of vermin that has now inundated our property on Middlemiss street.

The situation is now getting beyond a joke as we are constantly being over run with vermin, doing damage to our house and cars.

We have now had to resort to using rat poison to control the plague of mainly rats.

We are using a box of Talon every week to keep the vermin numbers at bay.

I would like to see the Botanic garden’s proposed sight slashed ASAP to keep the rodent population at bay.

Sincerely yours,

Steve Cruickshank
