is to reduce leakage and make the waste less accessible to flies.
Be Especially Careful With Meat and Fish
Meat and seafood scraps can produce strong odors quickly in hot weather.
If collection is several days away, some households choose to keep well-sealed meat or fish scraps frozen until close to collection time, provided this is hygienic and practical for their home.
Clearly contain the waste so that it cannot contaminate food or freezer surfaces.
Keep the Lid Closed
A closed lid creates an important physical barrier between flies and garbage.
Check that the lid
closes completely after every use.
