Where do you all wash out your litter trays? I don’t like the idea of using the bath seems gross to me (sorry for anyone that does)

I use a kettle of hot water and a bit of washing up liquid and ( his own ) toilet brush in the back yard then let them air dry .
He has two tray so I alternate them but they are both getting manky , I have thought about getting a steel one but he needs a lid because he tries to dig to Auz each time .
Do yours have lids ?

@Kepler22B & @Puppylucky

My has a lid. I have this one as I liked the grill on the entrance which does an ok job of catching stray litter.

It comes in a smaller size as well. The steel scoop is also great.

Thanks @Kepler22B , I have bought paw hut stuff before and generally like the quality, so I may get that one.
It's hard to believe I am willing to spend over £40 for something for my cat to crap on tho . 😏
