Is there a mac app to automatically empty usb drives .trash folder

As many of you may know when you delete files from a USB drive using mac OS X the fiels are moved to a hidden .trash folder insted of being removed from the drive. A person then has to empty his trash. Are there any Mac apps/ utilities that will change this to behave like windows. For example automatically empty the .trash folder when ever a file is deleted from the USB drive
