Mutant super rats IMMUNE to poison invade British homes to escape flooded sewers

Flood ravaged homes across England have a new threat to contend with: a plague of mutant 'super' rats. The disease-carrying rodents have been emerging from their traditional lairs in sewers and burrows, fleeing the rising flood waters. Hordes of the brown rats have escaped flooded drains across the south of England after storms unleashed torrential downpours on vast swathes of the country.

The rats are resistant to normal poisons and can transmit life-threatening diseases to humans and farm animals.
