Stinkin' Trash Can Cure
Posted: February 8th, 2005, 7:46 pm
If your family is like ours it seems impossible to keep the big black trash can from getting stinch, goo, maggots, etc (you get the idea) in the bottom of it.
The use of plastic trash bags maybe could be more regular... but just don't usually work out that way all through the "trash cycle".
I got tired of having to constantly rinse/wash out the can after the trashman came so I started putting a layer of pine straw in the bottom.
For the most part it works pretty good... Come summer after all the straw has fallen might be a problem, but for now I just grab the rake for a few strokes and be done with it.
