Dirty nappies in front garden

[DogualCat]

One of my delightful neighbours chucks dirty nappies out of her windows onto the front garden. They are in nappy sacks and do get picked up in the end but is it just me who thinks this is absolutely disgusting?

I've had to go out and pick up loose nappies strewn across the street this morning as something has got into a bag and strewn the contents along the pavements. it's just so vile and I can't work out why anyone would do it? I've seen a few other houses where filled nappy sacks have been sat outside front doors so am I missing something? Is this a thing?

People are so selfish. I can't possibly live with a smell in my bin, therefore everyone else should live with human waste left outside. That's not reasonable at all. Get a nappy bin if it bothers you.

That's disgusting.

Agree, report her to the council. It could attract rats and stuff. Imagine the smell in the summer!!!!!!!

It's not just by the front door though, it's all out in the garden

I used to keep a nappy bin immediately outside the back door for this reason. If I was on my own, it was easier to pop the dirty nappy straight out in that than take it to the ‘big’ outside bin.

Unless you live in a mansion, it takes approximately 15 seconds to walk downstairs with a dirty nappy and put it in a bin. There’s no excuse for chucking them out of windows or leaving them in front of the house.
How disgusting.

Ew. What a skank.

People defending hurling human waste out of windows? Because the person doesn't want their house to smell of their own baby's shite? Would we volley wodges of used sanitary towels, incontinence pads onto common land?
I would strongly consider not having children if you can't dispose of their waste in a sanitary fashion. Then try not having bodily functions when you are old/ disabled. Really disturbed that anyone could do this.

Huge overreaction going on on this thread. Pearl clutchers out in force tonight!

As a gardener I have come across such bags opened (and eaten) by dogs, foxes, seagulls. I've had the misfortune to stand on one that blew across the garden. Human waste up my trouser leg.

I do agree 're the multimillion pound making water companies though

I'm dealing with multiple changed pads for an adult daily. They go straight to the bloody bin. There is no excuse, at all.

Why can't they have a bin by the back door and put them straight in there. It is disgusting to throw them out of the window.

It doesn’t look nice and it’s lazy but I can’t see it’s really any different to people having rubbish in bin bags out when waiting for the refuse collection. It’s hardly the worst of crimes especially as you say it’s cleared away that day.

Exactly. All of us will produce various unpleasant waste. Dirty sanitary products, nappies, chicken carcasses, veg peelings etc. No one wants this stuff hanging round their house but you know, they bag it up, walk to the front door and put it in the bin like a normal person. I don't know why it would even occur to someone to throw it out of the windowm

My neighbour did this. I stuck one to their car windscreen when it was cold. The next day they had to chip it off as it was frozen solid.

They haven't done it since.

Oh yes well the utility companies are truly disgusting so crack on throwing bags of human waste around.

In fact, why don't we all just shit directly into the sea. Might as well eh?

This is weird, could you really be bothered?!

My neighbours do this an a few times they've ended up in my garden as the foxes have dragged them off their front door step and ripped them up in my garden. It's grim and lazy in my opinion.

I was very lucky in the house we lived in when mine were young. The wheelie bin was directly below the bathroom window at the side of the house, so we used to pop the nappies in bags then use one of those grabber devices to lower it down into the open bin below. (The grabber wasn't used for anything else and we never missed the bin, by the way).

We have an outside bin so they go out there. But my neighbour does this. It's not so bad at winter. But summer it stinks. She is very very weird and dirty though. Has social involved and just doesn't really care about much. Odd behaviour.

Absolutely vile. I would be a bit reluctant to say something though. If someone is that disgusting and thoughtless they might also be aggressive. Can you report it to the council/environmental health?

People defend anything on here. Yes hurling them out of a front upstairs window is clearly minging, especially if the contents are spreading around.

Yes rubbish sits in bags and bins outside. But that doesn't mean we can all fling turds around with gay abandon. Come on.

The excuses people have for grim behaviour ☹️. If they’re making it into the streets, I guess the animals are getting to it before she sorts it out.

Have they stopped producing nappy bins ?

Omg that is gross. I had a nappy bin but didn’t like it so I bought a small metal bucket with a lid that I keep outside by the Back door. I drop the nappy in and put the lid on then when all DC are in bed I tip the bin into the large bin. I would never just leave them outside and certainly not at the front.

Ugh, I've heard it all now.

That's disgusting and lazy!

My neighbour does this, disgusting. They are in a bin with no lid. I'd say something.
