Ummm... close the lid, run away and let someone else deal with it?! That's what I'd do

Sorry, I don't know! Have you tried googling?! How gross, it's happened to us before, so I feel your grossed out pain!!

Pour boiling water in there to kill them or sprinkle salt. totally gross though, we had them in our inside bin one year

Yeh i have, they said borax which i dont have

i might try boiling water and bleach. Thats what others have said but i wanted to hear from anyone else on BB that actually had something work lol

I use boiling water on maggots, then I would just give the bin a good hosing and only use a cleaning product if it was actually grotty.

I just use boiling water on them as well. Seems to do the trick.

Is this in the wheelie bin? When does your garbage collection happen?

To kill maggots, just pour boiling water over them.

They're just a natural part of food decomposition, personally I'd leave them if they were in the wheelie bin. If they are in the inside bin, boiling water & then throw them into the wheelie bin.
