Next try a perfume smelling trash can. Put good smelling laundry dertergent in the bottom under the bag, in the bag, keep sprinkling it in while you are home. Make it smell so darn good to us, but not to him... dryer sheets repel mice from pop up campers so put some of those in there too...

Peppers...hot peppers....... anything that causes the 'wowsir' reaction...nothing to hurt him, but teach him to stay out..

Natural items.....vinegar, lemon juice, anything bitter...

No smell at all.. rinse all bottles, lids etc. so that there is no smell whatsoever in the trash.....hoping he gets bored-ho hum..

take the fun out of it..make a new trash container under the sink, behind a closed door..

I think once he finds the can boring, he will leave it alone...

thanks I'll try those only I'll try the rest of the oxyclean we have.. that's a harsh smell that I know he won't like.
