A system for delivering deodorizer or repellent or both is intended for use with a household or commercial container including a cover. The system includes a first receptacle formed as a first housing shell surrounding a volume for holding a repellent or deodorizer, where openings allow part of the repellent or deodorizer to escape into the environment when the first receptacle is positioned on the outer cover surface and the cover is positioned on the container. A second receptacle formed as a second housing shell surrounding an inner volume for holding a repellent or deodorizer, where openings allow part of the repellent or deodorizer to escape into the inner container environment when the second receptacle is positioned on the inner cover surface and the cover is positioned on the container. A connector detachably connects the receptacles.

1. A system for delivering deodorizer and a repellent for use with a container, comprising: a first receptacle comprising a first housing shell surrounding a first inner volume for holding at least one of a repellent and a deodorizer, the first housing shell including an opening enabling fluid communication with the first inner volume;a second receptacle comprising a second housing shell surrounding a second inner volume for holding at least one of a repellent and a deodorizer, the second housing shell including an opening enabling fluid communication with the first inner volume; anda connector for detachably connecting the first receptacle to the second receptacle;wherein during intended use, an end of the connector is passed through a through-hole in a container cover having substantially planar upper and lower surfaces in order to interconnect the first receptacle to the second receptacle such that the first receptacle is positioned upon and above the upper surface of the container cover and the second receptacle is positioned upon and below the lower surface of the cover. 2. The system as set forth in claim 1, wherein the connector is permanently attached to the first receptacle. 3. The system as set forth in claim 1, wherein during intended use, the first receptacle holds a repellent and the second receptacle holds a deodorizer. 4. The system as set forth in claim 1, wherein first receptacle comprises an upper section and a lower section, wherein the upper section comprises a substantially flat upper part or top from which depends or extends a flange-like cylindrical portion, and wherein the lower section comprises a substantially cylindrical portion with a substantially flat base or surface and wherein the upper and lower sections are detachably connected. 5. The system as set forth in claim 4, wherein the lower section is open at its end opposite the flat base, wherein the flange-like cylindrical portion of the upper section is open at its end opposite the substantially flat upper part and wherein a diameter of the substantially flat base or surface is slightly less than a diameter of the substantially flat upper part allowing for the lower section to slide into the upper section and form the first receptacle. 6. The system as set forth in claim 4, wherein the opening includes a plurality of through-holes in both the flange-like cylindrical portion and the substantially cylindrical portion that are aligned in varying degree and affect an amount or size of the through-hole openings. 7. The system as set forth in claim 1, wherein the second receptacle comprises an upper section formed with a substantially flat disk-like member and a lower section comprising a substantially cylindrical portion extending up from a substantially flat base to form an inner volume of the second receptacle. 8. The system as set forth in claim 7, wherein the substantially flat disk-like member configured with a threaded side and wherein an upper inner surface of the substantially cylindrical portion is formed with a threaded portion that complements the threaded side of the disc-like member, allowing the flat disk-like member to be turned into and fastened to the substantially cylindrical portion. 9. The system as set forth in claim 8, wherein the opening comprises a plurality of through-holes or openings in the substantially cylindrical portion. 10. The system as set forth in claim 9, wherein the opening further comprises a plurality of through-holes or openings in the substantially flat base. 11. The system as set forth in claim 1, wherein first and second receptacles comprise substantially cylindrical housings formed as one piece and wherein the openings in the respective first and second receptacles are formed by a plurality of through-holes for dispensing the deodorizer and/or repellent and at least one opening or closable window for placement of the deodorizer and/or repellent therein. 12. The system as set forth in claim 1, wherein the first and second receptacles are formed of any of the group consisting of: plastic, polyvinyl, high density polyethylene (HDPE), polypropylene, hardened rubber, metal, recycled materials and a combination of these materials. 13. The system as set forth in claim 1, wherein the repellent is one of the group including insect repellent, rodent repellent, raccoon repellent, bear repellent and wherein the deodorizer is one the group consisting of carbon chips, carbon granules, carbon sticks, mesh bags comprising carbon, activated carbon, materials that emit botanical fragrances, citrus fragrances, woodsy fragrances, floral fragrances, fruity fragrances. 14. A container that delivers a deodorizer to a container inner volume and a repellent to an area proximate but external to the container, the container comprising: a container part formed as a hollow cylinder having a flat base at one end, an opening at its other end and cylindrical volume therebetween;a container cover formed to cover the opening in the container part that includes a centrally-located through hole;a first receptacle comprising a first housing shell surrounding a first inner volume for holding the repellent and including an opening facilitating fluid communication of the repellent from the first inner volume;a second receptacle comprising a second housing shell surrounding a second inner volume for holding the deodorizer and including an opening facilitating fluid communication from the first inner volume; anda connector for detachably connecting the first receptacle and the second receptacle to the container cover via the centrally located through hole. 15. The container as set forth in claim 14, wherein the connector extends through the opening in the container cover and fixes the first receptacle upon an upper surface of the container cover and fixes the second receptacle upon a lower surface of the container cover and wherein a dimension of the openings is adjustable to control a rate of fluid communication from the first and second receptacles. 16. The container as set forth in claim 15, wherein the cover includes further openings that allow for fluid communication between the first and second receptacles therethrough. 17. A system for delivering deodorizer and/or repellent for use in a container, comprising any of a group consisting of a first receptacle, a second receptacle and both and a connector for detachably connecting the first receptacle, the second receptacle or both to a container cover; wherein the first and second receptacles comprise respective first and second housing shells surrounding corresponding first and second inner volumes for holding at least one of a repellent and a deodorizer, wherein the first and second housing shells include one or more openings enabling placement of the deodorizer and/or repellent in the receptacles and fluid communication with the inner volumes and the connector passes through a surface of the container cover to connected the first receptacle positioned on an upper surface of the container cover to the second receptacle positioned on a lower surface of the container cover.
