The Drumbrae and Corstorphine area has been strewn with graffiti tags from the Ladbrokes to the North right down to a bus stop outside of McDonald's Corstorphine in the South.
The senseless vandals targeted various businesses as well as Lothian bus stops with ugly tags.

It is not known exactly when the vandals decided to target various areas on Drumbrae South but a local Tory councillor, Mark Brown, has slammed those that carried out the act.
He says that the sheer volume is appalling and that local businesses will have to fork out the cost for cleaning up the mess just as they come out of the pandemic.
He has called on those with CCTV looking out onto Drumbrae South to check their footage in case it contains valuable information.
Cllr Brown said: “I’m appalled, not only by the graffiti itself but the sheer volume of it.
“This not only has an impact on the pocket of businesses who will have the cost of cleaning up but these unsightly tags harm the visual environment of our community.
“It’s a busy road too, therefore if anyone has any CCTV footage or spotted anything that could identify the author of these mindless acts, please do get in touch with the Police.”
Ladbrokes, Scotmid, JK McCrone electrical services, and Anna’s Chinese takeaway and several bus stops along the popular commuter route were targeted with strange ineligible blue tags.
An Edinburgh City Council spokesperson said: “It’s very disappointing to see this property being defaced by graffiti which unfortunately will now need to be removed by the owners of the property at their cost. We’ll provide advice on its removal if requested.”
Ladbrokes, Scotmid and JK McCrone and Anna’s were contacted for comment.
