What's a surefire way to avoid this shit? Should I just keep all my meat scraps in the freezer until trash day? Fricking hell.

Go vegetarian or don't prop open your fricking trash can dummy.
If neither of those are acceptable to you, try not making waste from the flesh you buy. God damn Indiana, literally no better than Black folk, figured out how to use every part of the animal, least you could do is the same.
*Indians
In case you're too moronic to context clue that one out.
phone posters get the rope
>Should I just keep all my meat scraps
these words make no sense. what are "meat scraps" that's like "leftover beer".
Dude, why do you have so much meat scrap? Save that stuff and make soup or something. Organs, joints, heads, feets. All that stuff treated correctly can be great. Do some research.
Nice try Chang
consider eating the meat
Put it in a trash bag and tie it closed. Do you just toss shit in the bin without bagging it first? I've never heard of this issue in my life.
That's a compost bin.
Maggots aren’t a bad animal. They just look gross and turn into flies. During the civil war they noticed that people who recovered outside (and were generally people who were injured so badly no one thought they would make it) were benefitted by the maggots that ate the rotting flesh off of their body. In some cases they made a better recovery than the ones who were inside with nurses taking care of them.
Don't be moronic, all that showed was that wounds needed to be debrided and stripped of necrotic tissue, not that having vermin eat your flesh is actually sanitary.
in a survival situation, it can be the best option. not as great as a doctor or nurse properly cleaning the wound, but in a pinch would be better than nothing.
How much meat do you throw away? I eat meat every day and I've never had this issue. I also keep all my meat scraps in the freezer anyways and use them to make stock. Try doing that and timing your boils at or around trash day, so you can dump em and take them right out to the curb.
just throw it in the yard, cleans itself in a few days.
are the insects joining forces to lift the bin lid together? make your bin airtight m8
Just go fishing op, free bait
do you bag your trash?
you should buy less meat
Yes. And throw some bleach in the bin too. Holocaust those maggots.
Based bleach enjoyer. all problems can be solved with a few gallons of bleach. Including the talmudic problem
i have something similar but with veggie bits/skins/other cooking detritus, fruit flies everywhere
put out some soap and apple cider vinegar for them to bathe in but there must still be a few around because my legs still have itchy bumps
I had this problem in Florida when I lived in a city with once per week pickup. If go fishing and would have guts and things like that in the trash. 2 things - keep meat and stuff in a bag in your fridge until the night before and buy a simple sprinkler like pic related and flip your trash can over it to clean it out.
Interestingly when we went to once per week and this became a problem, our anole population (lizards) skyrocketed to help control the maggot and fly population.
Tell me more about these onaholes
Ha! Well, they are [pic related]. Just a common lizard in Florida. They are very common in Central Florida and eat insects. Very cute and otherwise completely harmless. But they will devour as many maggots as their bellies can take. And with the sudden introduction of millions of maggots, the Anole's had a field day. Nature interests me and I watched and the Anole population peaked about 1 year after our garbage collection changed and the maggot problem someone mitigated. I don't know if that's because of these critters or people changing their behaviors.
i miss those little frickers like you wouldnt believe
>t. moved back north to help take care 9f elderly dad (mom died of als)
>when I lived in a city with once per week pickup
That is an option? It's every two weeks here.
Get a chicken
Not a bad idea.
I have not more than maybe a pound of food waste per year unaccounted for, no bugs, and delicious eggs. I don't eat store eggs because compared to my free range eggs they have no flavor.
Chickens are like little dinosaurs. They tear apart any young mice and rats they catch. They love chicken and have a blast when I throw them bones and skin to munch on.
Oh I know. I've got about 30 chickens currently. I let them free range around my 2 acres. They are wonderful pets. They some times mess up my plants and they will find a million inconvenient places to lay, like the back of my truck when the windows are open, or in my garage. I love these little guys.
You're throwing trash unbagged into a dumpster? What the frick is wrong with you? Are you literally a moron living in a group home?
1. Put meat scraps in plastic garbage bag
2. Tie off plastic garbage bag
3. Throw in dumpster, denying flies
>in before "trash bags are a israeli plot", because I can already tell I'm dealing with severe autism.
>all that plastic waste for nothing
I bet you bag your leaves in autumn and then have to fertilize your lawn in the spring.
Let the birds eat the meal worms, what's the big deal
Thats what I do. I keep any food scraps in extra plastic bags in the freezer, and then put them all in their respective bins the night before trash day.
Yeah I keep that shit in a tupperware container until trash day. No problems.
I mean, if you've ever accidentally left raw chicken in your fridge for 2 weeks and noticed it barely smells even when you really sniff it, what's the harm of a few days of cooked meat?
What's the difference between scraps and leftovers? Just bc you're gonna eat one later doesn't mean they both won't last the same amount of time in the fridge.
>accidentally left raw chicken in your fridge for 2 weeks and noticed it barely smells even when you really sniff it
How fricking gross are you ugh
Wow...big turnout for the democrat national convention.
Spray the rim and lid of the bin with permethrin spray. Kills bugs.
ill usually pour boiling water in. then just spray it down with some bleach spray and rinse it out
bag your trash, and keep the lid closed. i don't have any problems.
plant italian laurels
gather leafs
put some layers of leafs in your bin when weather gets hot.
get a pig anon
convert those scraps into bacon
why did you name your pig 'anus'?
because he makes a lot of shit
Wrap food scraps in newspaper. That's what they did before garbage disposers were invented.
Remove the stick so flies can't go in and lay eggs or use paper bags.
Cut them up then flush down shitter. (No bones of course.)
Put it in the sun and let it dry out. Empty your trash every week. Get a chicken.
