Yes, completely agree! Our trash can had some kind of meat in it.....yuck. Threw out the trash and it stopped stinking the same day. Worse (warning....gross!). My dog had dined on a dead animal outside, came in the house and threw it up on the kitchen floor. We threw most of it outside in the trash. But I had left a couple paper towels from the clean up inside in the trash. In a day or two it reeked. Threw out the trash and the can was ok later. If it was stinking after two years, that is NOT your run of the mill bag of garbage.:worms:
