  • Publication number: 20100239191
    Abstract: The trash bag with drawstring and air vents is installed in a trashcan, the vent openings around its perimeter effectively allowing any air trapped between the walls of the trashcan and the bag to escape, thereby facilitating installation. A flap is disposed over the vent openings to prevent trash from falling through the openings. A drawstring is positioned around the top of the bag to close the bag when desired. The bag is sprayed or otherwise coated with a pleasantly scented fragrance to inhibit odious smells that might emanate from the trash accumulated in the bag.
