Don't feel bad your not the only one. I had people recommend things I already said I tired. /smh
You throw down wid yo glock fotie n buss a cap n they azz
Never had a maggot problem in our trash can (actually a 55 gal drum), but I usually keep a mothball in it (NOT the crystals). Our guy gets the bags out by hand, so it doesn't get turned upside down very often, and one mothball lasts for weeks.
If yours does get dumped, drop a mothball in it after each dumping. Keeps out everything but spiders & scorpions.
Mothballs don't seem to affect arachnids at all. When we had a well, I kept an open box of mothballs or crystals in the pump-house. Spiders would occasionally build webs inside, and then starve to death because nothing else would go in.

I spray my yard several times with Bifen to get rid of unwanted bugs. I've also sprayed my trash can with success against flies and maggots.
I was going to say straight bleach.
With your neighbor ...
Since we humans are killing the planet the automakers are using soy based wiring insulation these days and it seems the rats love to chew wiring now. I wonder if trash cans have something like this going on?
Leave the lid open and let nature take its course. They'll be gone in a few days.
I second the fly bag. Lowes has them for a few bucks and they do work well. I've trapped thousands of flys in those
Yeah I'd call the trash service and simply ask for a new fresh can and don't tell em why.
They will be glad to come swap it. If they wont, back over it with your truck and tell em it was hit by a car in the street on trash day.
