Hi
Im just wondering what type of scraps can safely be thrown out in the garden without attracting rodents or cats?

I presume potato peelings is ok? What about plain pasta and old vegetables and fruit?

Designate a corner of your garden. Throw stuff there.

The rats will just love it. And they reproduce like Billyo.

Use the brown bin and pay for it.

Unless you live out in the country with no neighbours next door with little kids and you don't mind rats on your property.

Sorry, why is there no brown bin in your area? I thought recycling was mandatory!

Hope you get it sorted. Rats are horrible fekkers.
