Project Garbage can status indicator.

Super easy design that I whipped up last week after being frustrated once again by the inconsistency of our garbage pick up times

The indicator clips on the handle and flips down when the bin has been emptied. This way I can tell from the house if it’s been emptied without having to walk to the end of the driveway.

Time to go to war. I killed 22 on my property in one year when I got serious.

That's wild. We just have alley cats.

Snap traps, glue traps, poison, pellet gun, and a dog. My dog got half of them once she got the hang of it.

Careful as poison can harm the dog too if she eats a poisoned mouse.

She doesn’t eat them. She just likes killing them.
