Now residents are asking Falkirk Council why these properties are being allowed to remain empty.
A Falkirk Council spokesperson said: “We are aware of the issues on Thornton Avenue and can confirm all three properties will be advertised on Homespot in the coming weeks.
“In the meantime we have had the bins emptied, gardens will be cut back and we will also arrange for pest control to inspect the properties.”
