Cineworld in Didsbury has had to call in a private extermination firm several times after the outbreak was first spotted.

Bosses at the 11-screen cinema at Parrs Wood Entertainment Centre on Wilmslow Road admitted to a pest control issue but said it was working closely with council environmental health officers.

They said they are confident the outbreak is fully under control and would be resolved shortly.

Bosses said health and safety was of utmost importance.

Manchester city council said it was informed by the cinema of a low-level infestation last October.

The M.E.N. understands that pest controllers have been used on several occasions.

Council chiefs said the issue was confined to the cinema only and no other businesses at the site have been affected.
