Rejected petition Council property suffering Ant infestation extermination done every three months

Council properties such as flats often suffer from infestation such as ants and they can only do quick fixes BUT they DONT keep up with preventing the infestation. Many families have to live with RED ants and black ants.

Please join this cause to force them to do what’s right.

More details

I live in pitcairn house in hackney which suffers from red ant infestation after years of complaining a petition went around and the council sent out exterminators that put down a temporary fix which did work BUT no follow up has been done and they have returned with a vengeance and once again the council is refusing to take action without a petition.

So let’s make all councils do what’s right.

When a permanent fix is not possible they should be forced to keep up with the temp fixes.

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.

We can't accept your petition because the UK Government and Parliament aren't responsible for the issue you raise. This is the responsibility of your local council.

You could raise your issue with a local councillor, who represents you. You can use this page to find out who your local councillors are, and how to contact them:

We're not sure exactly what you mean by "let’s make all councils do what’s right."
You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
