A loud banging night is no laughing matter in Buncrana.
Residents of the Inishowen town say they can’t get shut eye in recent nights.
Local resident and county councillor Jack Murray is one of those with red eyes.
He is now to raise the matter with Donegal County Council after being “inundated” with complaints this morning from local residents.
He said “I’ve been inundated this morning with more complaints about the banging noise which, again, persisted throughout the night last night, and interrupted many people’s sleep.
“I’ll once again be raising this with the council’s environment section to try and source where it’s coming from and have it stopped.”
Donegal County Council yesterday issued a plea for farmers to be considerate of their neighbours when using ‘crow bangers.’
Farmers experiencing issues with birds damaging crops or grain stores often use crow bangers as an effective deterrent.
In a bid to tackle noise pollution, the council asked farmers to “please make sure that crow bangers are not impacting on your neighbours’ sleep.”
However, it is not known if this is the cause of the loud banging noise in Buncrana.
