Other things to note Garbage Sorting in Wild Life Habitat: Our house is located in nature and therefore, we share the natural habitat with many wild animals. To avoid local bears and raccoons damaging the fencing, garbage cans, and being habituated to human food, we ask that guest use compost bags (provided for short stays) for food waste and freeze all food waste until the day of garbage collection. Extra bags will also be provided to freeze any strong smelling food packaging (such as meat trays). There is a small freezer provided in the utility closet for this purpose. Garbage & Recycling: Garbage and recycling bins (for mixed paper and containers) are located in the cupboard below the sink. Please wash all containers before putting them in the recycling bin to avoid attracting insects and wild animals.
