Never had an issue with trash pandas. But I do live in Scotland.

See more...

it that due to the lack of waste in your bins ( to tight to throw any food away)

[Gryff]

No,it's because us scots know how to recycle and the simple method
Works where we are my recycle bins are way fuller than the trash bin
In fact I got $3 off my food shop in Winne Dixie this evening as I used
The wall of bags folks had left in the villa all of which will be put back in the collection points and yes I use life long bags here as well leave them in the villa for folks too but they seem to walk
The critter removal guy is out tonite on raccoon patrol they are humainly caught and relocated

Our community have valet trash collection and empty the bins every morning, as such we ask our guests to only put rubbish out in the morning to avoid the issue.

DH forgot one day, we didn't realise how easy they get in and out of the bin until we witnessed, he just looked at us and continued his snack.

Another visitor tonight. Is it an apposum?

[Gryff]

Yes that's what it is

We used to have an opossum visit us every night in Anna Marie island. So cute! We used to feed him our Cheetos.

We've got Mr & Mrs armadillo back but they have moved 2doors up
The critter guy the HOA employ is coming tomorrow to relocate them but they can't move the stray chicken that's wandering about as it's a domestic critter
The whole community are on capture her to rehome her mode you get to about a foot away and she scarpers poor thing but we can't feed her till we get her safe for her own good

We have the bungee type grip handles on our trash cans.
Seems to work fairly well.

Unfortunately their teeth and claws can eventually get through.

We have bear proof bins on our community, racoons have no chance (to be fair, they are Sandra proof too as I really struggle to open it )
