Food compost is distinct from humanure compost. The humanure is done in a bucket under a toilet seat, which is emptied into a barrel. It stays in the barrel for months or years, depending on the climate, until the temperature decreases to room temperature…indicating that the process of killing the pathogens is complete. Then it’s safe to put on fruit trees.
Pretty sure pigs wouldn’t be covered in shit if they weren’t locked in a small pen
Wild/feral pigs still intentionally cover themselves in mud and shit. To keep cool and protect from the sun.
They also spread disease through their shit too
So do people
You spread it through yours as well.
Not if I compost it. Proper composting kills pathogens
So do you generally just shit in the compost directly? Or do you bring it out in a bag?
What? No, see the humanure book.
