I'd forgotten the large BP female that died next to the heat source... ewwwww... yeah. That's a smell you don't want. And to top it off, I stuffed her body(triple bagged) into the freezer until trash day, and put it out that morning.

Guess which garbage company decided to bypass my cans that morning out of spite? Guess who decided to LEAVE the cans out there until the next WEEK out of spite??

The company called to complain and I explained it was fresh garbage on the FIRST tuesday, but it wasn't my fault if the truck decided to leave it there an extra week.

They have NEVER missed picking up my cans again.

Well to be fair, I did CALL them and say "Your truck missed picking up my trash AGAIN." and they just sort of went "too bad".

And I wasn't about to bring that inside, ewww.

Now if it were me I would have painted my trash can black.

No. It was the most disgusting thing I think I've ever done.

Well. Removing 28 slugs from an 8' very upset BCI's enclosure was pretty gross, and scary. BONUS!

I'd think cleaning out the blender would have been the grosser part.

Whoever invented towels is my hero, they work on angry snakes, dogs, cats, iggys, kids, tweaker tokays - almost everything, except fish.

I had that happen to me too but they had sat because I was out of town doing shows and they had become very ripe. But again the garbage disposals in my pond seemed to enjoy them.

Not that I'd recommend someone do this unless they feel qualified but...

A damp, chemical and cleanser free soft towel is the perfect surface to lay a fish on for a brief period of time when physically removing adult anchorworms. Control is still a bit of an issue, and not every species can be restrained as easily as every other... and the time out of water needs to be considered but out-of-water removal is substantially easier than trying to tweeze them off while the fish is swimming.
