Rat problems in Hammersmith and Fulham
Rats are a constant challenge in Hammersmith and Fulham. The Thames, along with the older drains beneath Victorian and Edwardian terraces, mansion blocks and estates around White City, give them shelter and easy routes into homes, while busy food spots around North End Road Market keep them well fed. Gardens that back onto Wormwood Scrubs often see burrows under sheds and decking, especially in autumn.
