What sanitation arrangements

[uks]

What sanitation arrangements have you made post a natural or manmade diaster or the end of the world.

[Paul]

Shovel and a years supply of bum roll.

Same as Paul.

I'm looking into composting human waste, peeing into a local stream that goes away from us....quite rapidly (pardon the pun).

Toilet roll and all that is my main issue. As much toilet roll as we have, I still expect to last longer than it does.

Learning to make soap from nettles and animal fats, as well as sharpening blades....and stones, to shave with. Will use them to cut hair too (but scissors should last long enough).

Bathing and showers....going solar shower! Might end up using that same idea to sort out the toilet roll shortage problem.

Chemical camping toilet for short term, compost pee and poo in long term.

[bigpaul]

composting toilet.

Got a bucket & chuck it type camping toilet for short term. Long term, composting toilet. A bit of ply, 2x2 timber, wine fermenting bucket & sawdust is all you need. Well apart from bog roll obviously.

Cheap tesco soap. Works out at about 11.8p a bar last time I bought some.

Tesco triple blade razor blades. £3 odd for 12 blades. Cheap enough to stock up on now.

Bleach for sanitising surfaces, drinks containers etc..

Baby wipes for cleaning purposes should baths/showers be unavailable.

Sorted (I hope).

Don't forget that liquid bleach only has a shell life of 6 months whether it is opened or not.

Most chlorine powder / tablets last longer.

Stock up. Stupid bloody iPhone auto-correct strikes again. It's whenever I let my guard down

Actually now you mention about the bleach shelf life...
I bought some bleach sterilizing tabs from the pound shop after finding out the world health organization sell them to Africa for water sterilization.
Now really strong they smell when you first buy them... but after pauls 6 months or so ... still smell but not as strong even when still unopened so that's confirmed I think less smell I assume means less power... definitely worth remembering.
