STOMACH-churning pictures reveal the inside of a hoarder's home which left its landlord struggling to breathe. With bags of faeces, mountains of trash and hundreds of bottles of urine, the property in Plymouth, Devon is a dingy, dirty lair. Landlord Jan Pringle tore up the tenant's agreement at the one-bedroom basement flat after the resident refused to allow customary checks on the gaff during their two year residency.

When Jan finally got inside, he could barely swing the door open thanks to festering piles of rubbish behind it. Vomit-inducing vodka bottles filled with urine and bags of faeces also greeted the landlord, who had to don "a mask and gloves" to stomach the stench.

"As soon as the door opened, it felt like a rainforest because it was so humid," Jan said. "We couldn't push the door open because there was so much rubbish but when we did, I can't describe the smell. "It's like nothing I've ever smelled before. "There were a couple of hundred bottles of wee and bags of poo and I could smell it.

"I had to crawl over the rubbish wearing a mask and gloves because it was completely full. "You can't get to the bedroom or bathroom. The toilet was blocked. "The rubbish was composting. There were takeaway boxes, eggshells, and empty tins. "It was two years' worth of rubbish.
