As someone whose bin receives unwanted poop, the issue is that it goes straight to the bottom of the bin and never leaves because they don’t lift the cans up all the way. Then it gets smashed by my own trash, so now I have a permanently poopy-smelling trash bin that receives weekly deposits.
my dad found that putting a big, heavy rock on top of the bin was enough to stop this from happening to him. (he removes the rock before the crash gets collected.) from his perspective, the people who use other people’s trash cans to throw away their dog poop are doing it because it’s the most immediate and convenient option. if you find a way to make it slightly less convenient, they’ll look for something else.
This is a you problem not a them problem. As other poster notes, you need clean these out periodically anyway. Also, why do you care how a rubbish bin smells? Do you live with it in your house or something?
