🐝🚫 Tired of pesky flies and smelly maggots in your wheelie bin? Here’s a clever trick you can try today using an item you already have in your kitchen!
As the temperature rises, these unwanted guests become more active. But don’t despair! A cleaning expert has shared a simple, two-step technique to keep your household rubbish bin bug-free all season long.
Step 1: Boil a kettle and pour the hot water directly into your bin to instantly kill any maggots. Once you’re done, give it a light scrub with washing-up liquid for extra cleanliness, or a quick rinse with the garden hose works too! 🚿
Step 2: The key to preventing flutters of flies lies in a humble kitchen cupboard staple—salt! Simply sprinkle a handful of table salt every time you empty your bin. Flies despise salt, and it also prevents eggs and larvae from hatching, plus it helps soak up any nasty bin juice. 🧂
Bonus Tip: Line the bottom of your bin with newspaper to absorb any drips and keep things dry. This will also minimise unpleasant odors and discourage pests. Just remember to replace the newspaper regularly. 📰
Say goodbye to maggots and enjoy a fresher-smelling bin all summer long! 🌞
