What cheeses me off

[DejaBrew]

People who pick up after their pooch then drop the bag into my bin. What makes me even more cheesed off is they live down the hill so why not simply take it home and put it in their own bin?

That CMO slightly less than the inconsiderate $#!@^# who don't even bother picking up after their pooch and just leave it in your yard.

Related - and what I know will be a somewhat divisive topic - WCMO is others dumping their excess rubbish into my bin on collection day (without asking). Just because my bin is on the curb doesn't mean that it's open season on any free space, or that I haven't got anything else to stick in there before the trucks come through and empty the bin. I'm more than happy to offer available space to my neighbours on the odd occasion that they need it. With some neighbours I have a standing agreement (i.e. don't need to ask unless you are needing to use a heap of space), but for those neighbours with whom such agreements do not exist, it's just common courtesy to ask first.

What’s even worse is when your bin gets rejected because what they dumped into it is not accepted for collection.

On the upside, THEIR bin got emptied.

Danny Katz of The Age (SMH) this week had this very question — but the offender left it there.

He suggests having a sprinkler for the nature strip operated remotely to saturate them both

Get @Denali onto it. She'll have a plan for this.

We had a similar issue in a place in the country. The bin would be left on our property front, but we didn't have a fence. It was a green bin. But the plastic poo bag isn't green. I can't even remind MrP of his work in extracting it when he found it - let's say a month supply, without him gagging. Truly revolting. We contacted the council to get them to Instal appropriate receptacles.

... including "twenty-seven 8-by-10 color glossy pictures with circles and arrows and a paragraph on the back of each one explaining what each one was, to be used as evidence"

Best one on the market, Yard Enforcer® Motion-Activated Sprinkler

Had this in our front yard, caught 2 people outside of 84yr mum in laws bedroom at 3am - never seen a human jump that high before and they ran off, never to return. Installed it specifically for this purpose as the back of hubbys ute had something stolen for it - never saw them again after this.

You bought this from US or is it available in Oz?
Do you think they do one with a nail gun?

Just checked it out and it looks very good @Denali
We knew you (or Scottish dog walker) would know what to do.
I like how it talks about the most humane way to stop dogs,deer etc (but we all know great for cough sapiens too!)
