Living in Cork? You most definitely need to take note of THIS advice

If you're currently living the People's Republic of Cork then you may need to keep a closer eye on your tush the next time you use the bathroom.

According to a report in the Irish Examiner, the recent floods have resulted in some very unfortunate rodent-related events, and you don't wanna be next, believe us!

Drawing Cork County Council's attention to the issue, Councillor Noel Collins explained that one Cork resident suffered injury after falling foul of a crafty rat hidden in the sewer system.

"The flooding resulted in another problem for residents, that of rat infestation, which really upset many families, mentally and physically, and indeed, one elderly gentleman suffered a rat bite to his posterior while using his toilet, and had to receive immediate medical attention," Councillor Collins said.

Issuing a warning to Corkonians following the unfortunate incident, Councillor Collins said: "I would advise homeowners to keep their toilet seats down when not in use, and to watch their posteriors."

Consider yourselves warned, ladies.
