This is great, but unless you have something unpleasant in there eventually they will figure out being squirted is just the price of admission for the garbage buffet.
I was worried about that too but they came back yesterday and the whole troupe skirted the bins and squirter. I'm guessing the ones who got wet told the others it's not worth it. They have plenty of other options in the neighborhood to choose from
