The News asked readers whether they wanted fireworks banned and the majority only want fireworks to be set off at a publicly licenced display, not from people's homes.

Many readers said fireworks are triggering for people with PTSD because they mimic loud explosions and bangs like in the war. 

It is also well known that dogs can really suffer from the noises, showing signs of stress and anxiety by barking and acting unpredictably. 

A resident said: "My dog has been distressed barking for 2 hrs since fireworks started this evening (October 27). It is horrible to deal with and the season has only just started. Ban all but public displays please." 

However, some disagreed and said: "Invest in some mutt muffs or similar and let everyone else enjoy them." 

Bonfire night takes place next weekend and commemorates Guy Fawkes Night when King James survived the gun powder plot.

Every year, people celebrate November 5 with colourful and intricate fireworks displays, all over the country. 

However, celebrations such as Diwali are also taking place with fireworks being set off earlier than Bonfire night - arguably because fireworks are readily available to purchase to the public. 

Sainsbury's also banned the sale of fireworks and the move has been welcomed by charities and shoppers over concerns for the elderly and animals.
