I've got an application that creates log files on 'Macintosh HD'. The file size of these log files can build up pretty quickly to several gigabytes. I could periodically delete these log files. Or use an tool which deletes all log files on a drive completely.

But is there perhaps a way to prevent the creation of log files running in the background. Some tool I could have running in the background which prevents log files from being created by any application? Or which schedules to delete any log files let say every day? Or a script that I could have on my desktop as an icon so I could double click it and it deletes the application log files automatically?
