A binman can be heard squealing in the clip as the sizeable rodent scurries past his feet in Glasgow at the weekend
Video footage taken by the cleansing staff shows the sizable rodent waddling past the worker's feet in Possilpark at the weekend. In the clip, an employee can be heard crying out at the size of the creature as it scuttled past their feet.
Recent weeks have seen reports of rats filmed in children's playparks - even on a child's slide - and, as reported by Glasgow Live, one resident claimed up to 20 giant rats had invaded her garden. Glasgow City Council cleansing chiefs say the best way to deter rat infestations is to dispose of food waste correctly in the designated food bin.

There are rats running out the bottom of bins, bags lying at the side [of the pavement] who knows what is in them. The local authority is encouraging staff to report any sightings of rats to allow the public health team to step in.
