I have been using the food waste bins that Southwark provided , however the small waste bin outside has been invaded by ants despite the fact it's shut properly .

I am assuming Southwark will not want my ant infested food waste. Is there anything I can do or do I just not bother With the food waste ?

Maybe the ants have set up their colony in your food waste bin - it might have seemed a safe place or maybe your waste food is something which is delicious to them, such as fruit. Either way, I would not like the ants to be destroyed. I would tip it out in the garden as compost . If you dont want to do that or don't have a garden, let me know - before the dustmen are due to collect!

    • Nope that is boring,  I want something creative.  Maybe turn them into Xmas cards.  I understand from those daytime television programmes that don't involve buying houses, DIY, antiques, bargain hunting and the second World War that this is called 'upcycling'. AI suggests: Upcycling old cheque books can involve repurposing the paper from old checks into creative items like notebooks, journals, art pieces, gift tags, bookmarks, decorative paper, or even small boxes, by cutting, decorating, and assembling the paper to create new functional or decorative objects, while ensuring any personal banking information is properly obscured or removed.
