Massive 22-inch rat North Yorkshire made headlines as councilors David Taylor and Stephen Martin revealed the cat-sized rodent, removed by pest control from an Eston home, prompting searches like 'how big do UK rats get' and 'North Yorkshire rodent problem.' The councilors posted, “It’s almost the size of a small cat,” underscoring local disbelief and the urgent demand for action. The spectacle now fuels calls for a full vermin survey and treatment plan, plus a borough-wide alliance of authorities, exterminators, and property owners.

Referencing the councilors’ viral post, Eston’s rat saga now includes pleas for increased rodent-fighting funds and a formal survey. Trending queries—'best way to get rid of giant rats' and 'UK pest control costs'—collide with the image of a council debating vermin the size of house pets. Officials warn, “The longer this is ignored, the worse it will get,” as North Yorkshire’s rodent population threatens to outgrow local cats and possibly their political patience.

In Eston, North Yorkshire, pest control faced a rodent measuring 22 inches—nearly feline-sized—forcing officials to treat a single rat as both local legend and bureaucratic wake-up call.
