What do you do with your feeder waste?

I clean pretty regularly so it doesn't get too soaked in pee. I wish I could burn it cause I would use the ash as furtilizer. I'll never have a big enough garden for that much pine unless it was reduced to ash. Are soiled pine shavings considered trash? Cause I think I just can't burn trash like papers and plastics. Idk.

I do one of three things:
1) Throw it in the regular trash.
2) Add it to the compost bin (don't have an honest-to-goodness compost pile yet)
3) use it as "mulch" on some of the slopes in my yard.

Which I do just depends on where the need is at that time.

Sorry to resurrect a 9-month-old thread, but...

I'm looking into composting my rodent bedding after it's used. I don't have all the answers yet, but it APPEARS from my initial Google search that the ammonia from the rats is offset by the acidity of the pine shavings/pellets.

My question is, if you are using paper as a substrate for your snakes, can that be added to your compost after use, too?

I'm not a big 'environmentalist' or anything, so I don't have a moral objection to just throwing it away, but I am a big fan of using everything completely up. I pay for my rat bedding, and if it can have a second life, well, I want to make good use of my resources.

Thoughts?

I throw all mine on my big compost pile. Does just fine.
I don't add snake bedding to the pile, though. That goes out with regular trash. I don't add carnivore poop to my pile, wouldn't want that around my garden.
