A DAD in Whitefield is fearful of letting his son out to play after seeing rats near flytipped waste outside his house.
Igor Molchan, aged 47, has lived in Wenning Close for six years and he said this is the first time he has had to deal with flytipping.
He said the rubbish has been outside his home since before Christmas.
Mr Molchan said: "It's not nice. I spotted a rat running around near the pile and there's children that play in that area.
"I have a seven-year-old son and I'm scared to let him outside.
"I think somebody from elsewhere has come and dropped this off when no one was watching, I'm pretty sure no one in this cul de sac would have done that."
The pile of waste looks to include building rubble and a number of black bags on a blue tarpaulin.
Bury Council has been approached for a comment.
