Why Are Wheelie Bins So Dirty? And How To Achieve A Smell-Free Bin
We understand that your home and garden can be your pride and joy.
Your wheelie bins however, are not so much.
With their primary purpose being to store your used and unwanted items, they can easily become dirty, smelly and even attract pests. But why are wheelie bins so dirty?
Things You Throw Away
If you throw food scraps and general household waste into your bin, it will begin to decompose rapidly, especially at high temperatures. In turn, the high temperatures can attract pests and strong smells.
Leaking Bags And Containers
Leaking bags and containers in your bin can cause liquid to collect at the bottom of the bin, creating a breeding ground for bacteria.
Pests
Warm weather and rotting waste can make it an attractive place for waste-eating pests such as maggots. Pests and bacteria thrive in warm, humid environments, so keep your wheelie bin out of direct sunlight.
How To Keep Your Wheelie Bin Clean
Clean It Thoroughly
If your wheelie bin has residue or debris, give it a thorough clean with hot soapy water. Rinsing with vinegar or lemon juice is also a good option, once washed allow the container to dry in the sun.
