Hi, I'm contemplating using some old air tight cat litter containers as trash cans. I get ants so I usually hang the trash on a railing outside, but want to transition away from using liners. I read that cat litter breeds harmful bacteria in anaerobic conditions,and was wondering if I had a trash container for around a week to two weeks, with the air tight lid on it, would I be subjecting myself to potential health problems?
I would like to leave the lid off to avoid methane release, but am afraid additional pests will be attracted to it. I get sporadic incidences of cockroaches in warmer months, and would prefer not to increase them.
Any suggestions?
