Bin Buddy - Your Bin’s Best Friend

Apparently One in three Brits have fallen out with their neighbours over their wheelie bins, a new study of 3,000 people has revealed.

With bin collections in some regions happening only once a fortnight*, it’s no surprise that almost 35 per cent of people have had a row with the people next door due to overflowing, smelly or bug-infested rubbish.

I have happily good relations with my neighbours but have heard complaints from neighbours that others have maggot infested bins, chuck their rubbish in somebody else's bin if theirs is overflowing for example. So I can see it being a cause for trouble.

Almost 27 per cent of people surveyed claimed to be fed up with the bad smells caused by rubbish.

Jo Gosden, Bin Buddy spokeswoman says: ‘We were worried to hear that neighbours were arguing over the state of their bins; many people might not realise the impact an overstuffed, stinky bin can have on their community. We’re happy to able to offer an affordable and effective solution in the UK for the first time with the development of Bin Buddy.’

 

Bin Buddy is the first consumer household product available to buy in supermarkets and independent hardware stores that promises to rid your rubbish of unpleasant odours and kill and repel insects such as flies, maggots, wasps, ants, cockroaches, mosquitoes and more between collection days.

The innovative Bin Buddy range offers homes up and down the country with the fun and friendly solution they have been waiting for. The dual function neutralises odours leaving behind a lasting freshness, while the natural insecticide kills and repels flies, maggots, wasps, ants, cockroaches, mosquitoes and more without harming pets or the environment.

This ‘first of its kind’ product formulation comes  is proven to be more effective than using regular cleaning products. Simply sprinkle the fragrant powder into your wheelie bin or dustbin each time you dispose of your rubbish to make this household chore a far more pleasant experience.

I have been using the citrus one in my wheelie bin and I even sprinkled some in the kitchen bin as its got a marvellous zingy fresh scent and just takes away any chance of a grotty odour.

I will certainly be using this lots in summer as I have found it to be easy to use, fab smelling and effective.


The natural insecticide in the product has been especially designed to break down in direct sunlight, making it kinder to the environment.
