Maggots in dustbin (elimination thereof)
Hi,
A few months ago our local authority switched to bi-weekly refuse collection. One of the unpleasant consequences of this is that our bin seems to have become permanent home to large numbers of unpleasant maggots....and the bi-weekly collection ensures some of them become flies. Can anybody suggest an inexpensive way of controlling/killing them? I thought a dribble of creosote over the bin contents would make the environment pretty hostile inside the bin. David |
