Llanelli residents plagued by flies for over 10 years, blaming local recycling plant
People in Llanelli, Wales, say a swarm of flies has made it impossible to eat, sleep, or open windows for over a decade. Local residents attribute the infestation, which has intensified since 2018, to a metal recycling centre situated nearby. Carmarthenshire Council is investigating all potential causes with Natural Resources Wales, who regulate waste sites.
