Anyone with a cunning plan?
Put them in a black bin liner in a corner somewhere and wait for collections to restart.

There is the source of my other issue that I am having to deal with at present. Rats have discovered the compost bin in my garden. I've got rid of the water butt next to it to deny them a source of water, we've stopped composting kitchen waste and I've closed off all their runs with concrete blocks. Anything else I can do that doesn't involve poison? Heard peppermint oil is good anyone tried it?

Spent a couple of days now removing substantial shrubs planted by the previous owner of our house and turning the borders into something more to our (well my wife's) taste. I'm not a fussy person as long I have somewhere to sit outside BBQ and drink beer that doesn't have a single patch of lawn I am happy (although I am coming round to this horticulture lark).
I'm now left with a fair few root balls that I've dug out. What is the best way to dispose of them? I've tried burning them in my incinerator but that just causes loads of smoke and they don't burn anyway, they don't look like they'll compost very well, the tips are closed and garden waste isn't being collected. Anyone with a cunning plan?
