Dealing with snake waste

[blackcrystal22]

The problem with just throwing it in the trash is that the snakes and garbage or both in my room where I sleep and work. I don't want to be smelling that all day lol.

What I mean by trash is a separate garbage bag specifically for cleaning the cages, I will fill up my trash cans wayy to quickly.

I folded my last spoiled sheet of newspaper in a ziplock bag, think I will continue to do this. I looked up latex gloves but a box of 50 is like $99.

I have them at my job by the bulk hahaha i didnt know the went for 99 bux but as we all know protection cost money lol latex is safe we have boxes of 100's here

Yeah I had a feeling it wouldn't take you long to fill up a garbage bag of snake waste. Looking for alternatives for people like myself with a small collection of balls.

I don't know where you're looking cause those prices are insanely high.

Go to your local pharmacy. They should have latex/nitrile/vinyl gloves for around $5-10 for a box of 100.

Don't use gloves, just roll everything up into a ball with the paper, put into plastic grocery bag. Usually fill two or three of those on cleaning day. Tie the grocery bag up and throw out.

I use my bare hands for everything, poo, pee, etc etc...

I just wrap the Kraft Paper up and throw it in a 32gal trash can I have in my snake room.

Empty it every trash day to every other trash day

have a box of latex gloves grab the sheet of newspaper ball it up and when i take the glove off it turns into a little bag for the waste i love it

Mad good idea, bout to get some latex gloves from work. My BP has not defecated yet (after three or four meals), it should be soon.

This is quite a bit cheaper and they sell them in larger quantities even at a better deal.I use them all the time.

Ditto on the plastic grocery bags and ditto on the filling two or three of those, but only when cleaning up after the burm. "Slithering through poop is fun!"
