Default Garden Trek III: The search for Shat


Never use cat, dog, or pig manure in vegetable gardens or
compost piles.
Parasites that may be in these types of manure are more
likely to
survive and infect people than those in other types of
manure. It is
also important to keep your pets out of your vegetable
garden.

any manure from an animal that eats meat or will eat meat
(including humans)
can and has kept the e-coli bacteria cycle active. So, no,
never use this type
of "manure" on your garden(s). Natural grass eater (cow,
horses, etc)
should never be fed any type of animal by-product as it,
too, can and has
transferred e-coli. Slaughter houses where making extra $$
at our health
expense. I do have concerns seeing cow manure mixed with
water and then
used to fertilize fields. These same fields are utilized as
pasture or for
making hay bales. So back into the cow it goes.

And e-coli is another reason why everyone should wash their
raw vegtables
bought from a chain store, such as strawberries, lettuce.
It's not hard to
figure out why.

I'm very grateful that I live in a small enough town that
uses not use recycle
human waste. The larger municipal's state that their water
meets EPA
guidelines for drinking water. Guidelines are not good
enough for me.
They can make all the claims they want regardings recycling
human waste
products and it's safety, but, nope, I aint a gonna drink
it.
