With the arrival of spring, life in summer cottages begins to boil, and along with gardeners and vegetable growers, insects become more active.
It is impossible to ignore the country toilet, or in simple words – the toilet. We will tell you how to deal with the smell, get rid of insects and even save on the services of sewage disposal companies.
If the contents of cesspools are not pumped out, then staying in a country toilet becomes unbearable.
On the one hand, there is simply an unbearable smell. On the other hand, there are annoying insects spreading infection.
What to do
You can periodically add chemicals to the pit. This method works without fail, and if it weren't for the cost, there would be no reason to look for an alternative.
Moreover, it often happens that the problem makes itself known when there is no special product left in stock.
Surely most summer residents have some peat stored up - for heating or adding to the soil. This is what needs to be poured into the hole to get rid of the smell in the toilet. In addition, it will drive away insects.
You can alternate peat with tomato tops or fresh nettles. This option solves all the main problems associated with servicing a country toilet: smell, insects and pumping.
