I worry about this every year once summer hits... Since it's so hot, food scraps tend to spoil faster, and the bugs just keep coming in! :( So I think it's a good idea to take out your garbage often. Another way to deal with it is to put your food scraps in the freezer before garbage disposal day. You can easily purchase bleach, insect spray, cockroach traps, plug-in mosquito repellents, etc from the grocery store. I even bought a mosquito net to hang around my bed when I sleep so bugs don't bite me while I sleep :)
