What do you do with your sh*t?
Here is how we have managed our waste over the last 5 years.
We collect the droppings from the dogs, and any green material (Bermuda hay, leaves, sticks etc) and we pile them in the corner of the yard. As it piles up we add a couple 50# sacks of hydrated lime (about 2x's yearly). There is virtually no smell, unless it is extremely hot and dry. Or when it is really wet, then there is an earthy odor. Neither of which is bad.
Before this, we had 5 gallon buckets placed throughout the yard with black trash bags and lids. We would clean daily, then each week when the trash man comes, well, he had a surprise! I figure this new method saves the landfill somewhat, and we have come up with a use for the "compost".
Once the matter has broken down, it resembles a "rich" garden compost mix. We haul it across the yard and fill holes, or back fill an old chainspot (pictured).
Please share some of the creative ways you dispose of, or recycle your dog yard waste.
