So what would you suggest?

I disagree about more people not picking up during day light. He works shifts anyway so there might not be any extra wages costs. Is double time a guess or a fact for working evenings?

I think this is a good idea but what I want to see is how many people are being caught and fined in the paper each week.

I have noticed a lot more dog mess on our streets and in the parks at the moment. It is always the same at this time of year when it is dark. More people than usual decide not to pick up the mess because they assume they wont be seen by anyone.

Used correctly this equipment could soon be paid for by the extra fines handed out and we could have less mess on the streets.

If anyone has a better idea then why not suggest it instead of just moaning about our council trying to keep our borough clean?

Incidentally, the mover of the motion is Cllr Moss of Rishton, which has a very healthy and growing population of Foxes.

No one is suggesting that owners should not clean up after their pets. We are complaining about the ludicrous overreaction, the unecessary expense and making a laughing stock of the borough in the national press into the bargain, luv.

And another thing, no one has yet come up with a reason why the owners of horses and cats should not also be required to clean up after their pets.

No, Neil. Not well done Ken.

Foxes also carry the toxocara worm and are a significant vector for the disease. Does Ken Moss now intend bringing another motion before the council to compell foxes to clear up after themselves on penalty of a fine?

Dogs are now given an additive with their food so they can pass luminous poo.

No need to clear it up then, if your out at night and you see something glowing green, it's either the dog warden with his night specs and safety jacket or else a dog turd, no-one would want to step on either.

i wouldnt ban them but would like to see laws passed saying all cats must be on a lead when outdoors and cleaned up after.I know it isnt really an option but it would cut down on complaints from neighbours after i drop kick their filthy moggy back over my fence

It's not the animal's fault, they are only obeying instinct, and there is no reasoning with that. If anyone deserves drop kicking it is irresponsible owners, luv.

Luminous poo!
If you didn't clean it up once there was enough you could turn the street lighting off and save electricity. Although some people would then complain there was no room left for their dog to poop.
