IT appears we may get our garbage collected only once a fortnight. How dreadful. If our rubbish attracts vermin, will Darlington Borough Council pick up our pest control bills?
Maybe we should all leave our bin bags at the Town Hall's doorstep?
Maybe then councillors would and allow us to continue to get our rubbish collected each week instead of attracting pests from the skies and sewers outside our homes.
I dread the day when my neighbours will see me fighting off these scavengers with a broomstick, dressed in a frogman's diving suit. It seems that I am going to have no other choice.
Christopher Wardell, Darlington.
