This was not the appropriate place for DH to stuff his litter?

The other day I came into the sitting room just in time to catch DH stuffing his empty crisp packet down between the gaps in the floor boards.

We have an old house and don't have a cellar as such just a void underneath the house which is sometimes used by plumbers etc to walk about in to fix or move pipes etc. DH's response, 'no one goes there it doesn't matter..'

My response - 'that's gross, use the bin you foul slob!'

I am Angry and Blush to think of what other festering litter might be down there waiting for the next plumber. Admittedly it's only a narrow gap, just wide enough to accommodate a very flattened out crisp packet.

I can't even get down there to fix it, the plumbers have to lift a special hatch in the kitchen and walk the length of the house and I am scared of the dark and spiders.

Aibu?

Eurgh! You'll get some kind of infestation!

DoreenLethal · 23/02/2016 16:32

Why would you go down to fix it? Send him down to go pick up whatever shit he has put down there.

FauxFox · 23/02/2016 16:38

How long has he been doing that?! You'll get mice or rats if you haven't already! What a lazy slob Confused

I hope you don't have any electrics down there, as it sounds like a fire hazard.

MrsSeanBean · 23/02/2016 16:45

Gawd knows Faux. I don't think the are any electrics down there, at least I hope not as my dad used to say there was water at the bottom!

What a dirty lazy man he is, you will get rats!

BolshierAryaStark · 23/02/2016 16:52

Indeed, why would you fix it? Send him down there. Just disgusting Hmm

YANBU. That's how infestations start Envy
(If it has yummy crumbs. In which case, LTB, who leaves crumbs behind, they're the best bit!)

MrsSeanBean · 23/02/2016 16:55

Ha ha at him fixing it! He's a stubborn lazy thoughtless oaf. Literally out of sight out of mind as far as he was concerned. I mean he's not lazy in that he will do stuff if he thinks it should be done, but he literally didn't see a problem with a crisp packet going under the floor boards! Shock

I do wonder sometimes why I am still with him, but that's a whole other thread for another day!

He sounds very disappointing OP Sad

RhiWrites · 23/02/2016 17:14

That is grim. And you'll get rats!

MrsSeanBean · 23/02/2016 17:19

I know, it's vile and I'm Angry. Who in their right mind would do such a thing... here I am married to one.
