We have suffered on and off for the past 18 months.
End of a row of 5. All started after one of the properties was empty for a while. Called environmental health out treated, went away, repeat. Spoke to neighbours all swear blind they have no issues so it’s left to us constantly reporting.
Said initial
Empty property is on and off vacant and as soon as it’s vacant the problem dies down as soon as residents in it comes back. Assume they are running riot in the property when it’s empty.
Trouble I’m having is restricted loft access and a lot of insulation. Blocked every access to living areas we can find and so far confident the issue is confined to loft. Starting to feel the only way forward is to remove all loft insulation and start afresh up there but that will have to wait till summer now.
Seriously considering going to local MP over it. Environmental Health man says nothing he can do unless others report or he can see a probable issue with another property and as no one else wants to admit anything we are stuck.
It’s gone on that much we almost accept it at the minute.
Feel for you. It’s not nice but equally nothing to be ashamed or embarrassed about as our neighbours seem to be.
Sorry for the long post 😳
