A community in the Somerset Region is facing a strange issue. 

Flying foxes are plaguing Esk, with residents reporting stenches, screeching, and health concerns to the council, but little has been done. 

Esk residents, Codie Lukricz and Annette told Gary Hardgrave on 4BC Drive, "In the last two years, the bats have moved into what we call our little piece of paradise by the creek in Esk here, and unfortunately, they've moved in like a plague."

"For us as a community, we can't quite understand why the council doesn't want to help us come up with some form of solution," they continued.
