Pet Photos thread where too much is never enough.
RE: Pet Photos thread where too much is never enough.
Here you're allowed to dispose of pet poop via "sanitary landfill", meaning you can put it in the wheelie bin for the truck to pick up on Thursdays.*

*Unless there's a holiday on or before Thursday, in which case it's offset one day later.

That's one of the silliest things I've heard. Is this a city, county or state thing?

And does everyone flush their pet crap or are there other non flushing methods you've heard of?
I may be mistaken. I know that one is supposed to pick it up, not leave it laying around. I personally would not leave it in the trash can for a week. The flies would be unbearable. I don't know what everyone else does.

We have lids designed to keep the bugs out of the trash. Six years here and I've never had a bug problem with the trashcans, if I keep the lids closed. they don't noticeably stink in the Midwestern summers either.

I'm a cat person.

It's some sort of "crime" to throw the dog crap in the trash, here where I live. I flush it down the toilet, because I pick it up (with a plastic bag) and take it home when I walk the dog.

I wonder if it's also a crime to through messy diapers in the trash?  

Seems to me that pet poo would be one of the most biodegradable things put into the trash/landfill.

Unless it's that synthetic poo mentioned upstream.

I think you need to get a couple of solar ovens and sterilize, then return to the yard.

Might need to vent through a capture filter.

I was joking with the wife that I could incinerate it.  Hehe I have a propane-fueled burner that would make short work of it. I wouldn't use a septic tank setup here, as our soil has too much clay for decent absorption.

Have you smelled burning dog shit before?

I think you want a slow controlled release of volatiles.   Dodgy

Hilarious  No, I haven't. I can close the windows and doors! It won't smell for that long, anyway. In any event, I flush it down the toilet, so, what me worry?
