RE: My Composting Outhouse Toilet

in #offgrid7 years ago

Your outhouse looks great! We have been looking to do something similar and you have given me a few ideas. Our focus has been for a compost toilet inside the house, in case of a big snow storm, when the power goes out or its too cold to go outside.

Sort:  

I see no reason you can not have both. I know of a few folks that have humanure systems. Everything goes into the bucket and is covered with sawdust, etc. It is then placed into outdoor composting bins and covered with hay daily. I've not noticed any odor when I visit. There are a few more simple precautions to take for containment issues.

I just love An American Homestead and have followed them for a few years now. Here is a link to their system. It might be helpful. https://steemit.com/homesteading/@mericanhomestead/humanure-and-composting-toilet-safety-facts-save-major-money-avoiding-septic-systems

Thanks for the link! We like watching An American Homestead for any tips as well. They are always doing something interesting on their homestead. I actually have them to thank for talking about steemit and that is what got me started here.

Zac inspired me to sign up for steemit too! My account sat for a month while I tried to figure out what was going on over here, haha.
