A rat infestation at Crystal Court flats in Hackney has persisted for around a year and was filmed showing more than a dozen rats in the bin store. Residents report seeing 10–15 rats, hearing scratching through walls, feeling terrified, stressed and unable to sleep, and fearing to use communal areas, especially with children present. Multiple complaints were made to the management company. Notting Hill Genesis cleared household waste from communal areas, carried out extensive pest control and prevention work, completed cleaning of the bin store, and advised residents to take additional care when disposing of waste.
I saw 10 to 15 rats scurrying up the walls, running into a hole in the bin store ceiling,
I was shocked. I threw my rubbish into the bin and got out.
You can hear them scratching away. We've complained quite a few times already.
Household waste left in communal areas has now been cleared and we have carried out extensive pest control and prevention work. Work to clean and remove waste from the bin store has been completed and cleaning will continue to keep the space sanitary. We continue to work with residents and have advised them to take additional care when disposing of waste to prevent these issues from reoccurring.
