You've been told how to solve the problem - but you don't want to
actually do it. You appear to be looking for a magical or supernatural
solution that requires little to no effort, and not one that will
actually result in effectively solving the problem.

And despite your protestations, NO reason you couldn't do what I
suggested. You can't find free newspaper, cardboard or dry leaves?
Really???

Washing the bin out (or whatever it is) is an exercise in futility if
you don't address the core problem.

So WTF is the point of this thread... attention-seeking trolling, as
per usual.
