The reason why you have maggots in your trash can
While you may see them at almost any time of year, you’re most likely to run into maggots in trash cans during the hot summer months, when high temperatures and humidity create the perfect conditions. Garbage rots more quickly in the heat, and the resulting smells can begin a maggot bonanza: “Rotting food or waste material produces methane gas, which flies are attracted to. They then lay their eggs on the rotting waste. Maggots are a common garbage problem.
