Residents have raised their concerns after a stream turned pink.
Pictures show the bizarre sight of the watercourse which became a shocking shade in Kennington, Ashford.
One photograph was published on a local Facebook page and a member of KentOnline staff also found the incident with a shot from The Pasture.
The mysterious discolouration is on a long stream that runs through a large part of the area.
A resident confirmed to KentOnline they had noticed the strange occurrence in part of the stream which flows through their garden in Lower Vicarage Road.
It has caused a lot of head-scratching over what was caused it as well as amusement.
One Facebook commentator quipped: “Alas someone has killed Mr Blobby,” referring to the garishly pink TV character.
Another remarked: “Does it lead to Willy Wonka land?”
Some wondered whether it was pollution from paint or a form of bacteria.
Others urged that samples should be taken as well as the reporting of the incident,
Residents have already informed Environment Agency and KentOnline has tonight also contacted Ashford Borough Council.
