There has been more dumping of tyres in Scotland, and the environment agency is becoming frustrated as it attracts all sorts of rodents. They are also a big fire risk as many are set alight and fire fighters spend their time putting them out, which causes harm as when tyres are burnt they produce a toxin that can pollute local water.
Disposing of these useless tyres costs money and takes up valuable time that could be spent doing other necessary jobs. Its an illegal thing to do and if it doesn’t stop then it could be polluting areas around us.
