    People SHOULD pick up their rubbish, they SHOULD leave the beach clean, they SHOULDN'T take drugs etc etc - yet people do. No point being nostalgic or indulging in wishful thinking. It takes a long time to change ingrained behaviour and needs to be enable by the council putting up enough bins AND enforcing non-littering regulation by employing beach wardens. Eventually, visitors will get the message but until then, either clean up the beach or live with the rats...

    More rats seen today 19th july, seems the Council don't care. Nothing done since the problem was highlighted a few weeks ago. Say nothing & the problem will disappear, don't scare the visitors.

    Round up all the stray cats from around town and release them in Lahinch. Problem solved. :)

    There was something on Clare FM about it yesterday - a woman complaining that the rats virtually came up to take her childrens crisps out of their hands! The response from the council was that the warm weather and increased rubbish in lahinch due to the fine weather was the cause. If people cleaned up their rubbish from the beach it might help! Why, oh why do people think it's acceptable to leave dirty nappies, drink cans, empty food wrappers and God knows what else on the beach!?

    Is Lahinch that special? We haven't had a "Summer's day" around here in months!
    Maybe I should consider moving to Lahinch .... seems the rats know where to go to keep warm .....

    As above. Check the post dates. Stuff like this should be left in the past.

    Locked.
