There was a very foul odor of rotten garbage emanating from the bin and something that smelled like fermented grain or fruit. The presence of garbage with such an odor indicates that trash is not being removed in a timely manner and may pose a risk of attracting flies and other pests or vermin which could impact the health of the animals.
