We do not put meat etc into our waste bin. We freeze our food rubbish for collection day. We have located 4 nasty smelly spots in our house and after inspection under the floor believe they have died in the walls ! The next thing we will endure will be groggy big black blow flies by the dozen daily ! They come into the house when we turn on the lights and come down from the light fittings ! We seem to be going through this cycle every 3 months. Bait stations have been laid outside the house near a large shed,under the floor.I am sick of the stench and flies.What are we doing wrong ?

We also want you to know that we have enjoyed taking your phone bookings and between sessions will continue to take them because at Cinema 3 we have a few "actual people" as said on our phone prompt, who can help with that lol. There are also some great movies screening currently, so being as it's nearing festivities it pays to book. Hopefully see you all at the pictures. Have a Very Merry Christmas 🎄🎄
Thanks,

It could be a neighbour who donates time to a sports team in your neighbourhood or someone who brings your bins up the driveway every week. Maybe they’re just really unique; the neighbour who drives that bright pink car or skateboards with the kids to school each day.
Tell us why your neighbour is awesome and you could win one of four $250 Prezzy® cards (plus one for your Awesome Neighbour).
