I have a load of spolied food going rotten in my kitchen & binday is not until next tuesday, so wondering if anyone has any ideas of what i could add to the binbags to put rats & foxes off getting into them?

i live in a town so not many foxes, & theres no meat/fish in them, its all veggie food.

I need something i'm likely to already have at home.

Any smells they hate?

bleach? Pepper? chilli?

I have no wheely or plastic bins, & i cant take them anywhere else - I just need a deterrent.

Any Ideas?

Thanks :)

I’m confused too - we have a large wheelie bin for glass/plastic, a large wheelie bin for cardboard/paper, a large wheelie bin for general waste, and a small plastic bin for food waste.
