still rot down? Phil |

If there's a limited supply of oxygen in the bags and they're not completely sealed, then it'll smell even worse. Surely composting it properly is a better, less smelly option? |

I agree with you that it is likely to smell less if done in the open. Anaerobic digestion of the sewage is going to be messy, though, it'll get moist and rancid smelling fast. Anaerobic digestion of faecal waste is an area of microbiology inhabited mostly by massochists. Punchng lots of holes in the bag sounds like a reasonable option, though. |
