Method 1 Remove cobwebs with homemade products

    one
    Look for the cobwebs during your daily cleaning. It is best to remove the cobwebs as soon as you see them, this will help you to prevent spiders from infesting your home. While you do your daily cleaning, look for cobwebs and remember the place where you saw them to clean them later.
    two
    Remove the cobwebs with a vacuum cleaner. The best way to remove cobwebs is to simply vacuum them. A hand vacuum is the simplest to handle, but if you do not have one, use a floor vacuum with a nozzle.
        Simply use the nozzle or hand vacuum to vacuum all the cobwebs you see. If these are inside a crack, vacuum the area several times. [one]
        If you notice any cobwebs on furniture or curtains, vacuum them. Then, use a lint remover to remove any residue of fabric that has been stuck. [two]
        Be sure to check under the furniture. Some types of spiders could weave their fabrics in dark areas. Once a week, turn your chairs, tables, chairs and other furniture to look for cobwebs. If you notice any, aspire it.
    3
    Use a duster with a handle to reach difficult places. Some places may be difficult to reach with a vacuum cleaner. You can clean with a soft duster with a handle any corner or crack that you can not reach with the vacuum cleaner. If you do not have one, attach an old sock to the end of a stick or ruler with an elastic band. Then you can use it as a tool to remove the cobwebs. [3]
    4
    Use packing tape and a paint roller to clean the gotelé ceilings. Gotelé ceilings, also known as droplet roofs, can be difficult to clean. Although it is usually frustrating to clean the cobwebs on these types of roofs, using packing tape could be a great trick. Take a paint roller and wrap packing tape around it, with the sticky side facing out. Then pass it over the ceiling with gotelé in order to remove the cobwebs. You may have to pass it several times to remove them all. [4]
    5
    Spray the windows and the meshes of them. Often the spiders weave their fabrics in the corners of the windows, establishing themselves between it and the mesh. If you want to remove the cobwebs from these places, follow the guidelines to wash the old windows. Spray the window and mesh with water, you can use a hose or a sprayer.
        If you spray the windows from the outside, use a garden hose with a nozzle to spray the window. You can spray the water through the mesh, directing the water to the cobwebs. If you spray water from inside, use a common spray. [5]
        Remove the mesh from the window and use a smaller atomizer to remove all remaining cobwebs. Then clean the windows with the cleaning implements you have selected. You can use commercial glass sprayers purchased at the supermarket or simply soapy water. Wash the windows well, making sure to remove all remaining cobwebs. [6]
        To prevent the recurrence of cobwebs, replace mesh that is torn or punctured. This will prevent spiders from entering your home.

    6
    Check the hard-to-reach places in your house again to make sure there are no cobwebs or egg sacks. Check the corners and cracks inside your house and make sure there are no cobwebs or infestations in these places. If you live in an area where poisonous spiders are a danger, you'll want to make sure your house is free of cobwebs. The best way to prevent spider infestations is to avoid them before they start. [7]

Method 2 Use chlorine

    one
    Prepare a mixture of chlorine and water. You can also use a combination of chlorine and water to remove the cobwebs. This solution works best if you use it on cobwebs with spiders than on abandoned ones, since the mixture will eliminate the eggs and kill the spiders that live in them.
        You can buy chlorine in a supermarket in your locality or on the Internet. Be sure to read the package instructions before using chlorine. Always dilute the chlorine with water in the recommended proportion in the container. For most houses, 3,70 liters (1 gallon) of chlorine will suffice. [8]
        If you are going to spray the chlorine outside your house, you will need to buy some type of chlorine atomizer. You can buy one online or at a supermarket in your area. Keep in mind that you may also need a garden hose or an adjustable spray nozzle. [9]
        If you are going to put chlorine in your house, a large atomizer could be too powerful. You can simply mix the chlorine with the water in a small hand spray. Be sure to wear protective gloves when working with chlorine, as it can be corrosive to the skin. [10]
        Always mix the chlorine with hot water, neither cold nor warm. Never mix chlorine with other household chemicals. [eleven]

    two
    Check your house to find the cobwebs. Before beginning the process, check your house to find the cobwebs. This will help you determine where you have to spray or wash.
        When spraying chlorine on the outside, it is advisable that you do it in sections between 3 and 4.50 square meters (10 and 15 square feet). Search the areas where there are cobwebs and decide how to divide your house into sections. [12]
        Look for things such as lighting fixtures or electronic components in your home. It is advisable to make sure you do not damage these areas of your house with chlorine. You could try manually removing the spiders with a brush to clean if you find cobwebs in such areas. [13]

    3
    Wear protective equipment Since chlorine can be harmful to the skin and eyes, it is recommended that you wear protective equipment before starting to spray it. It would be best if you put on protective clothing, safety glasses and gloves. [14]
    4
    Spray the cobwebs. Direct the atomizer to the areas infested with cobwebs. Adjust the atomizer so that the liquid comes out somewhere between a solid stream and a soft spray. You may want to try the atomizer on the floor or on the cement before using it in your home. [fifteen]
        Apply a generous amount of chlorine with water over any area where you see eggs or cobwebs. When you notice that the cobwebs and egg sacks begin to peel off, spray another layer of chlorine and water. [16]
        If the cobwebs are very sticky, use a cleaning brush to remove them manually. [17]
    5
    Store the remaining chlorine in a safe place. Once you've sprayed and removed all the cobwebs you found in your home, keep the remaining chlorine in a safe place. Store it in a tightly closed container out of the reach of children and pets. The manufacturer's instructions should give details on how to store or dispose of chlorine safely. [18]
    6
    Spray chlorine inside your house. When cleaning your house with chlorine, make sure to let it work for a minute after spraying it on a spider web or an infested area. Then, clean the cobweb or egg sacks with a cloth and spray the chlorine again. It is best to let it dry only after applying it instead of re-polluting the area with a towel. [19]
        Keep children and pets away from areas of your house where you have used chlorine recently.
        If you feel dizzy, open a window to ventilate the space.

Method 3 Prevent the recurrence of cobwebs

    one
    Try the spray products. If you have a spider infestation in your house, you can buy commercial sprays to kill spiders in order to kill them. Usually these products are used on the outside of the house to spray the perimeter of the house as well as the cracks and crevices that spiders could use to enter your home. [twenty]
        Choose an aerosol product at a local supermarket. The most advisable thing is that you know the basic structure of your house before buying the product, so you will know which one is safe to use in your home.
        Walk the perimeter of your house. Spray the product around the foundations of your house. Also, look for potential sites that spiders could enter. Pay special attention to the cracks in the window frames and the entrances to the garage. [twenty-one]
        The specific measures regarding the safe use of the product will depend on the type of aerosol you will use. The package or packaging surely includes the instructions and safety warnings. Always read them before using any spray product to kill spiders.
    two
    Use essential oils If you're worried about using chemicals in your home, essential oils may be useful. Try to make a mixture of essential oils and see if you feel a difference.
        In general, spiders dislike the taste of essential oils. You can buy them online or at a local store. To achieve the best results, use neem and tea tree oils. [22]
        Mix about two tablespoons of dish detergent with warm water. Then, add 5 drops of tea tree oil and 2 tablespoons (2 ounces) of neem oil. [2. 3]
        Spray this mixture in your home on the areas where you have seen spiders. [24] However, be careful, make sure not to leave the atomizer within the reach of children or pets. Tea tree oil can be toxic if swallowed.
    3
    Consider the insecticides. There is a great variety of insecticides to control spiders. Go to a hardware store in your area and check your options.
        The insecticides in powder are the best to place in fissures and cracks. They can be easily applied in hard-to-reach places in your home. [25]
        Powder insecticides are the best way to treat specific sites. If you've only seen spiders in a few places in your home, consider using a powdered insecticide. [26]
        If you try to establish a barrier around your house, consider a liquid insecticide. They are usually mixed with water and then used to cover large areas around the house. [27]
        As always, be sure to carefully review the safety warnings of the product you buy before using it.
    4
    Try an electronic repellent. Many feel more comfortable with electronic repellents because they do not involve spraying their house with chemicals. Electronic repellents generate electromagnetic waves that repel spiders and other pests. You can buy them online or at a hardware store. However, read the reviews of the products carefully before buying one, in order to make sure that it has served most of the buyers. [28]

    5
    Seek professional help if necessary. If you have a serious spider infestation, you may not be able to control it yourself. In this case, the most advisable thing is that you hire a professional exterminator. It is best if you are especially proactive in this if you live in an area where poisonous spiders are common.

Warnings

    Although all spiders are poisonous, most are harmless to humans. The minute amount of poison they produce is usually too small to harm people and most species are extremely docile, so they are unlikely to sting. However, some spiders such as the black widow, the brown recluse, the red back, the funnel cloth, etc., could be dangerous for humans. Identify any unknown spiders you find and avoid close contact with species that could be dangerous.

Doggy Poo Bag Home Dispenser with 100 Bag Roll

7 good reasons to collect your dog's feces

So you are the proud mother of a child. Do you like to play and walk with him? Of course they are unforgettable moments, but we have a doubt, what do you do when your hairy angel makes the bathroom in the street or the nearest park? Do you pick up their stools or leave them there for the Clean Service to take care of them?



Doggy Poo Bag Home Dispenser with 100 Bag Roll

If you are the one who chooses the second option, we ask you to read each word of this note with great attention. We are sure that after doing so you will change your mind.

You must take into account that your dog is not the only one that lives in the City. According to the calculations of the authorities, the canine population of the capital goes from 3 to 4 million dogs, of which 30% are stray.

Together, all these hairy angels produce, on average, 500 tons of feces a day. If we take into account that many owners do not raise the excrement of their pets, the vast majority stay there, contaminating the air we breathe.

Although we are sure that after reading that number you have begun to reassess your position on your dog's feces, we want to give you seven good reasons to raise them:

1. Air. Specialists in environmental policy estimate that every year, each inhabitant of Mexico City inhales 1.5 kilograms of feces. Obviously, this figure will increase depending on the growth of the dog population. How much more do you want to breathe?
2. Respiratory tract. By inhaling this organic matter you can develop respiratory diseases, such as allergies, asthma, tuberculosis and pneumonitis.
3. Skin. When in contact with your skin, the bacteria present in the dog feces can cause some infections and / or diseases, such as scabies.
4. Stomach. Since there is no way to prevent stool particles from reaching the food you eat (especially on the street), do not be surprised if you have gastrointestinal discomfort, or develop a more severe disease such as amoebiasis, cholera or salmonella.
5. Infectious diseases. You can present brucellosis, leptospirosis, toxoplasmosis, rabies or viral hepatitis.
6. Dog. By being in constant contact with feces, his or other animals, your pet can acquire a gastrointestinal infection that will easily infect you.
7. Fines The Law of Civic Culture of the DF establishes that those who do not collect the excrement of their pets are entitled to a fine ranging from 11 to 20 Account Units of Mexico City (71.68 pesos, so you would have to pay between 788 and 1,433 pesos), or an arrest from 13 to 24 hours.

How to collect fecal matter from your dog for a study

It is also necessary to collect stool samples from our dogs according to what occasions. They are a way to determine certain diseases and they are a vital part of the studies that are carried out prior to an accurate diagnosis. Perhaps, collecting feces from our cats for their study is easier than in our dogs because we control to a greater extent where they make their stools.

If our dogs go out to the street things get complicated. But there is a remedy. The best thing is to take it with the strap to the exact place where we want it to do its business. It will be difficult if you are used to doing it at your disposal, but you will end up doing it. We must choose a place that can offer us the greatest possible cleanliness, because if the stool is contaminated, it will be useless for its study.

Let's try to make them on a smooth surface to avoid mixing with dirt or dust. We must have taken the specific jar they gave us to place the samples with us. Once our friend has made his depositions, we must take a clean bag or plastic and collect the sample.

We put it in the jar and it is enough to go directly to the veterinarian to deliver his sample. If our dog usually needs to do their home, the ideal is to place a newspaper or disinfect the area where it usually does so that once you do your needs we can collect the depositions in the best possible condition. In this case, cleanliness and hygiene is essential because a good diagnosis will depend on it.

Campaign to collect dog feces in Mexico City

 In Mexico City , around 500,000 kilos of canine excrement per day are produced, which are left in the streets as a result of the irresponsibility of the owners of the domestic dogs , but also by the population of stray dogs, according to estimates by the Ministry of Health of the Federal District .

The problem of feces is not aesthetic but public health , as it generates problems of parasitic , bacterial and mycosis such as salmonella , typhoid or diarrhea , especially when the excrement is dust and fly, explained the Council Citizen of Public Security and Law Enforcement of the Federal District, at the beginning of the program " I collect the feces of my dog ", in the Historical Center.

This activity is part of the 10 citizen behaviors of the "Mexico City, Citizen Capital" program that aims to change the image of the country's capital.

The Citizen Council joins this effort through a contest , which will be held in the street of Regina in the Historic Center in collaboration with pet food companies and cleaning products for them.

This contest , which will last 20 days, will consist of a constant monitoring in addition to a photographic record of the pedestrian section of Regina, among the inhabitants thereof to keep their street feces free and for this purpose will be divided into four sections: Plaza Regina, Regina between Isabel La Católica and Callejón de Mesones; between Mesones and Cinco de Febrero; and between February 5 and November 20.

In conference, the president of the Citizen Council, Luis Wertman Zaslav , explained that the contest will win the section that has been cleaner in that period of time, where at the request of this citizen body, the authority will not collect the feces of the mascots.

This is the third action to clean the streets of the city in which the Council participates, after the collection of garbage and chewing gum.

It was reported that there are 19 million dogs in the country and between 3 and 4 million in the DF; while the number of cats at the national level is seven million and in the capital they rise between 2 and 2.5 million .

What if today I do not pick up my dog's feces?

You're in the park and you forgot the bags, you got lazy to pick up your stools or you just got distracted while doing it. What happens if you leave them there?

Beyond social responsibility, respect for others, education and culture, leaving our dog's feces in the park, the street, the forest or the beach can be very harmful to the health of all of us who share the planet.



quynhchi store 42Rolls=630pcs Dog Poop Bags with Bone Dispenser Doggie Waste Bags Pooper Scoopers Bags Pet Poo Bulk Garbage Bag Dispenser

The main consequence are the "ZOONOSIS". But what is that? Zoonoses is the term that refers to the diseases that humans can acquire through other species; For example: through the feces of our dogs we can acquire parasitic zoonoses produced by cysts, eggs, larvae and worms. Some of the diseases that are transmitted through feces are typhoid, salmonellosis, hepatitis A, leptospirosis, among many others. These parasites can enter our body by ingestion ...

By ingestion? ... But how could you eat a dog's feces? In fact it is very likely that you have done it, without realizing it. If any particle of poop was in your shoes, on the legs of your dog or your toys, in the hands and / or shoes of children, any object that has been in contact with the remains of feces that we left in the park will be a carrier from the same. The stool particles will reach your home and from your house to your mouth there will be a single step.

In addition, when the faeces that do not get up dry, the particles that contaminate and contain parasites fly until they reach the food that we buy in street stalls or even in restaurants with outdoor terraces. The dried stool particles also fly and remain suspended in the air we breathe.

The list of zoonoses is very broad and the consequences very serious. Parasites can make us very sick and cause damage to most of our organs.

If we all ALWAYS collect the feces of our dogs the chances of ingesting them will be greatly reduced.

Do not know what to do with your dog's feces?

There are many ways in which we can take responsibility for the feces of our dogs. The main and most important thing is to want to do it.

• Always have a plastic bag, preferably biodegradable, to raise the poop with it as soon as your dog finishes defecating, knot it and throw it in a trash can
• Take toilet paper and use it to collect the poop with it, if you have a strainer with running water nearby, you can throw it there, the drain is the same that runs through your house, so it will be the same as if your dog had defecated in the toilet .
• If you use toilet paper and you do not have a strainer nearby, you can use a plastic bag to transport it to the toilet in your house, empty the contents in the toilet and pull the lever, so you avoid bad smells in your house and possible infections by zoonosis, plastic bag knot it and throw it in the inorganic garbage.

Does it give you the sensation of taking the poop with your hands?

There are many options to avoid that hot and humid sensation. For example:

Acquire a special clip to pick poop.
Load a saltcellar with lime in a bag, it will be enough to completely cover the poop with white powder. You can make the saltcellar with a glass jar and pierce the lid to let out enough dust.

Take a plastic spoon and cover it with the waste bag, put the bag in the spoon cavity and pick up the poop with it, take out the spoon and knot the bag.
It is very important to spread this information, because the more we are responsible, the less diseases we will all have. In addition, there are many people upset because humans do not collect the poop of our dogs and the consequences of that anger end in atrocious acts such as mass poisoning.

Please be aware, disseminate the information and kindly motivate others to collect the feces.

And you know: if you do not want to eat stools, pick them up always and spread the word;)

The importance of collecting the feces of dogs in the street

Responsible masters get their dogs to walk not only to exercise but to take advantage of their needs, but many do not consider that they should clean the waste to avoid disease and contamination.

The dog's faeces are pulverized and people end up breathing their waste, which can cause infections.

"It is a matter of healthy social coexistence and of avoiding health risks," says Verne Carlos Esquivel, head of communication at the Faculty of Veterinary and Zootechnics of the National Autonomous University of Mexico.

A dog produces on average 300 grams of excrement per day and a half liter of urine, Esquivel calculates. "The soil absorbs the urine, but the excrement dries, it is pulverized and its particles travel in the environment and can end up in the food that is consumed in the street or we can breathe it", he explains, adding that it constitutes a risk of diseases and infections.

Collecting feces from the dog minimizes the chances of exposure to the eggs and larvae of worms, worms and other parasites that wreak havoc on the human intestinal system. Some parasites found in dog feces can cause serious eye damage in young children, explains clubperruno.com.

One of the most common myths, according to Esquivel, is that the waste of the dog serves as fertilizer for gardens or planters. "Yes they are biodegradable, but dogs, being omnivores, can discard bacteria or parasites that are resistant to environmental processes," he explains.

The veterinarian also does not recommend discarding them in a bag. "It can have a waterproof effect, which prevents people from exposing themselves directly to excrement, but there is no information available on how they are handled with the rest of the garbage, if they are separated or treated in any way," he warns.

To run into the feces of dogs in the street is also something unpleasant, not only because of the smell, but because of the risk of stepping on them, so some people also consider it a lack of respect for others not to pick them up.

Recommendations:

•     Do not let dogs go out alone to the street.
•     If you take out for a walk, always carry a bag to collect your feces.
•     Use a special catcher for stool or pick it up with a piece of toilet paper.
•     Throw the waste directly into the toilet so that it goes to the drain, where it is treated or degrades naturally.

Why is it important to collect dog feces?

It is not a pleasant subject, but it is important for dog owners. Collecting stool is not only necessary to keep cities clean. Although we do not like to do it (I speak from my own experience, since I have grown up with German bulldogs), collecting the feces of our dogs is a health issue, even if we are in the country where no one can step on them.



Doggie Walk Bags Designer Duffle Bags for Dogs, Ocean, Yellow Paw, Yellow

Why pick up?

It is estimated that there are more than 5 million dogs in Spain, and these are only those that are registered as pets. Imagine the amount of feces produced by these dogs every day!
It is estimated that at least 500 tons a day.

Managing the cleaning and disposal of these wastes is very expensive for the cities, and although the irresponsible owners who do not collect them are a minority, this has a real negative impact on the perception of domestic dogs.


In addition, dog feces are a risk to the health of people and other animals because they contain harmful parasites. The most common is a parasite called Toxocara Canis, which can cause a very serious infection called Toxocarosis.

Other dangers related to dogs' feces are:

• The transfer of parasites and bacteria to wild animals and other pets, not just dogs.
• The pollution of the environment, especially water. When it rains, the feces can end up in ponds, lakes, rivers, etc ...
• The contamination of drinking water.
• The bacteria present in the stool, like E. coli, giardias or campylobacter, all dangerous.
• With this information, you can help us inform other dog owners with the goal of encouraging everyone to collect feces of their hair out of respect for people and the environment.

Be more ecological

If you want to do more than simply pick up bags and throw away your dog's daily gifts, here are several ideas for a more ecological routine:

The biodegradable sachets

They are already beginning to be found in veterinary clinics and pet stores in Spain. These bags are usually more expensive than normal, but if it is possible to take care of the planet, they are worth it.

Reuse the bags of the Super

Do the Supermarket plastic bags accumulate in your house? Use them to collect your dog's feces! It is not as convenient as carrying bags and they are not biodegradable, but at least you are recycling instead of buying bags manufactured specifically for this.

Compost the feces

If you have compost or a place to start composting, you can add the feces of your dog or another pet. Surely it is the most ecological way to eliminate this waste, but in most cities having compost at home is prohibited.

If you want to do this, remember that the faeces of carnivorous and omnivorous animals take much longer to become compost than the remains of food or plants.

The toilets for dogs

There are "toilets for dogs", which are nothing more than a mechanism that connects with a septic tank to throw dog feces and other waste.

Choose the option that best suits your lifestyle, always trying to eliminate the feces of your dog in the most respectful and ecological way possible.

False! For dog excrement to serve as fertilizer must go through a process of compost, with other organic waste.

3. For consideration: Have you passed a street with an unpleasant smell from the poop of other dogs? Or have you accidentally stepped on one of these "gifts" yourself? Well, you know it's not nice.

4. At the end of the day, it's your responsibility !: Beyond all the justifications, collecting your dog's excrement is one of the responsibilities that you acquired when you added it to your family.

One of the daily tasks that must be done after feeding him is to take him out to relieve himself, and the owner's main duty is to collect his feces .

How to pick up the dog's stool

•     The first thing to do is equip yourself with one or more plastic bags, which you will use to collect the animal's feces. In the dog shops you can also get a very nice kit "carry bags" in the form of bones that you can adjust to your belt and always take them with you.
•     Get your dog out an hour after he has eaten. Take it on a leash to the street or nearest dog park, preferably where there is some grass. The dog will always prefer to relieve itself in the pasture.
•     When you are in the street and your dog needs it, collect them as follows: take the bag, put it in your hand, turn it around like a glove (so you can take the stool without getting dirty), wrap it and tie a knot . It is very easy and fast.
•     Dispose of the bag in any of the trash bins destined for that purpose or by the drain of your building.

How to pick up dog excrement 15 steps

No matter how you look at it, picking up dog droppings is not a pleasant task. Many dog owners probably think that picking up dog droppings is a necessary evil. And is that despite the dirt and stench that involves picking up the excrement of a dog, doing this task is an important part of keeping clean an entire environment (not just your backyard). In order for you to remain a responsible owner, you should take some time to learn how to pick it up and dispose of it correctly.

Part 1 Use a plastic bag to pick up a dog's excrement

    1

•     Buy plastic bags for dogs. While the plastic bags of the supermarket are an option if you do not have other bags at your disposal, it is recommended that you use small bags for dogs to collect the excrement. The different types of dog bags are available at your local pet store. Since picking up excrement can be a smelly process, consider buying scented dog bags. Many bags also have ties and that makes it easier to close them after collecting the stool. [one]
•         Take several dog bags with you each time you take your dog for a walk. This way you will be prepared if your dog has to defecate during the walk. [two]
•         Biodegradable dog bags are also available: these are more environmentally friendly than regular plastic dog bags. [3]

   2

•     Turn the bag inside out. Flip the bag inside out when you bend over to pick up your dog's stool, whether you're out walking or picking up your droppings after it has defecated in your yard. This will help keep your hand clean since you will put your hand inside the bag upside down as if you were wearing a glove. [4]

    3

•     Collect your dog's excrement. Once you protect your hand inside the bag in reverse, take firmly the excrement from the ground and collect it. [5] If you are going to pick up the excrement that is in a concrete, try to do it in the cleanest way possible (for example, do not scrape the concrete with your hand when you collect the excrement). If the excrement is on the lawn, make a circle with your claw-like fingers and then go as low as possible to the pile before picking it up.
•         Keep in mind that picking up excrement will be easier if its consistency is solid rather than soft (or similar to diarrhea).
•         If you clean the excrement of your dog that is in the yard, you may need several bags, depending on how much time has passed after your dog defecated.
•         If you went for a walk and you forgot or you ran out of bags, consider going to a nearby store to ask for a bag or a disposable cup in order to pick up your dog's excrement. If you're not near a store, try to find something on the floor that can work, like a large, sturdy sheet. [6]
•         Make sure you get a good grip on your dog's leash if you are going to pick up his stool while you walk around. [7]

    4
    Flip the bag to the other side. Use your free hand to fold all sides of the bag with the excrement. [8] It may be useful to take the sides of the bag only with the tips of the fingers. This way you can reduce the chances of your free hand touching the excrement that may be near the edges of it.

    5
    Tie the bag. Once you have flipped the bag, use both hands to tie it. Make sure to tie the bag tightly so that it does not open when you throw it away. It may be useful to hold your breath when you bind it. [9]

Part 2 Use an excrement catcher

    1

•     Buy an excrement catcher. If the idea of ​​picking up excrement with your hand makes you apprehensive or if you have trouble stooping or bending over, an excrement picker is a good alternative to dispose of. [10] There are many types of excreta pickers at your local pet store or at your home gardening store. Dung pickers often come with shovels (for use on a solid surface), rakes (to be used on grass) or pot holders (to take the dung). [eleven]
•         Try to find an excrement catcher that is strong enough to be used with just one hand. [12] If you walk with your dog, it would be useful to have a dustpan that you can use with one hand.
•         You can also buy an excrement catcher that is designed to have a plastic bag that is placed at the end of it. [13]
•         Due to the nature of their design, excrement catchers are not effective in collecting excrement that has a soft consistency (or similar to diarrhea). [14]

    2

•     Collect your dog's excrement. If your dog defecated in a concrete, use the excrement picker with a shovel to lift it. [15] Once you collect the stool, carefully put it in a doggie bag. Also, you can use the "gripper" of the excrement catcher to hold the excrement and place it in the dog bag.
•         If you clean the excrement that is on the lawn, use the excrement catcher with a rake to collect the excrement in an ordered pile (if necessary) before lifting it in order to throw it in a dog bag.
•         The mechanism for using the dustpan will depend on the types of accessories you have. The staff at your local pet store or your home gardening store can help you with how to use the specific picker you want to buy.

    3

•     Clean your excrement catcher. It is necessary to clean the excrement catcher so that the remains of your dog's excrement do not start accumulating there. Those remains could attract flies and make it harder to pick up your dog's excrement. To keep it clean, you can pour water with the hose or let it soak in a bucket with disinfectant. [16]
•         If you choose to use a bucket with disinfectant, be sure to use that bucket only to clean your excrement catcher and not for other household chores.
•         Talk to your local waste department for advice on how to dispose of the water you used to disinfect your excreta pickup. Do not pour dirty water into storm drains as your dog's feces may contain harmful pathogens (eg, intestinal bacteria or parasites).

Part 3 Discard the excrement of a dog

   1

•     Find out about the regulations in your city to dispose of dog droppings. Discarding a dog's excrement may not be as easy as simply throwing it in the trash or passing it in a toilet. If you do not know what to do, check with your local waste department to learn acceptable methods to dispose of your dog's waste. [17]

    2

•     Dispose of your dog's waste in a trash can. If you are at home, you can use your own trash can to dispose of your dog's waste. Keep in mind that your main trash can can stink a lot, especially if you keep it inside or stored in the garage. To deal with this potential problem, you could keep a smaller garbage can apart to collect your dog's excrement. When it's time to take out the trash, you could pass your dog's excrement to the larger bin and leave everything out. [18]
•         If you are in a dog park or other public place, you can find the nearest garbage can in the open air to dispose of the excrement. Dog parks usually have garbage cans intended to collect such excrement.

    3

•     Pass your dog's excrement through the toilet. While imagining this situation can be quite unpleasant, it is usually okay to pass your dog's stool down the toilet. If you do, make sure you take the stool out of the bag first. If you have a disposable dog bag, you could put the entire bag and its contents in the toilet and pass it through. [19]
•         It is possible that in your city it is not acceptable to pass the excrement of your dog, therefore, consult with your local waste department before using this method to dispose of pet waste.
•         If you have enough excrement to throw away, do not make it happen all at once. If you do, your septic system could become clogged. [twenty]
•         Keep in mind that disposable dog bags can be expensive. [twenty-one]

    4

•     Install a septic system for pet waste. It is an underground septic system that is known as doggie dooley and is specific to decompose your dog's excrement. [22] [23] It could be useful if you have your own patio. A doggie dooley is relatively easy to install; however, you should check with someone at your local pet store before installing and using one in your yard.
•         Once you have installed it, follow the instructions of the machine in order to add water and a digestive powder to the excrement of your dog. The waste will decompose in an environmentally safe liquid that the soil will absorb. [24]

    5

•     Call a pet waste disposal service. If you feel really uncomfortable with the idea of ​​collecting your dog's excrement in your garden or can not do so, you can contact a pet waste disposal service to do it for you. [25] Your veterinarian may be able to recommend reputable services to you. You could also talk with other dog owners to get recommendations. Keep in mind that these services can be expensive. [26]

    6

•     Find out what methods to eliminate excreta are inadequate. Several potential methods to eliminate excreta are not adequate due to environmental and public health problems. For example, you should not let your dog's excrement simply decompose in your yard by itself. Your dog's excrement would not only begin to emit odors and attract flies (especially in the summer months), but could contain bacteria and parasites that can be harmful to people and to the dogs themselves. [27] [28]
•         In addition, storm drains could drag your dog's excrement and eventually end up in local water sources if you leave it in your yard.
•         It is not recommended to fertilize dog droppings since the compost pile does not heat enough to break down the bacteria and parasites that may be there. [29]
•         Burying your dog's excrement could also expose local groundwater to pathogens, which makes this an undesirable method to dispose of a dog's excrement.

    7

•     Wash your hands. Even when you have the proper precaution to keep your hands clean, it is possible that they can still become infected with bacteria by collecting your dog's excrement. An effective way to prevent the spread of these germs is to wash your hands frequently. [30]

Tips

•     You may prefer to use a newspaper to collect your dog's excrement as it is more environmentally friendly than plastic bags. However, keep in mind that using newspaper to collect excrement could be more messy since you could not roll the newspaper in the cleanest way as it would happen if you tie a plastic bag. [31]
•     To keep your garden smelling good, you can spray an odor neutralizer on your lawn. [32] This product is available at your local pet store.
•     If your dog defecates inside your house, put on a pair of disposable gloves and collect the excrement with a generous amount of toilet paper. You can pass the excrement in the toilet, as long as your city allows it to do so.
•     Keeping dog bags in the place where you keep your pet's leash will help you remember to carry the bags with you every time you walk.

Warnings

•     Pathogens that could be found in your dog's excrement can cause illnesses to people and dogs and immediate medical attention may be necessary. Picking up excrement soon after your dog defecates and washing your hands after doing so will help reduce the likelihood of disease transmission.

How to collect your dog's feces

Look where you look at collecting your dog's feces is not a pleasant task, but quite the opposite, it is a dirty, uncomfortable and unpleasant task, but as much as you do not like it, the fact is that every dog ​​owner you must collect your stool, not only if you do it in your home or in places where it is specifically stated that the stool should be collected, but always collect it, no matter where you do it.

Picking up your dog's feces helps to keep a whole area and environment clean, since not picking them up already or only implies a bad smell or someone can step on it, but it can be a health hazard, since our dog's feces can cause several diseases that transmit to humans, such as giardiasis, salmonellosis, or toxoplasmosis, for example. Next, we will show you how to collect your dog's feces and dispose of them properly, so that you can fulfill your responsibilities as responsible owner.

Use plastic bags

The most used method for speed and comfort is the plastic bag. Every time you take out your dog to relieve itself, I recommend you take two or three plastic bags with you. Any plastic bag, like supermarket bags in principle can work, but it is better to use dog bags, which are smaller and more manageable, in addition if your dog's faeces are very smelly you can choose perfumed bags, and you can even choose some with ties to close them, which can later be much easier to close the bag. Finally you have more ecological options, such as the use of biodegradable bags. Remember that you can buy different sizes of bags according to the size of your dog, since their feces are also relative to their size. The bigger the dog, the bigger the "buns" will be. You can find these bags in supermarkets and pet stores.

Once your dog has defecated, take a bag, open it and turn it over, that is, change the inside to the outside and vice versa. Now insert your hand in the bag (in this way you will avoid getting dirty with the feces). Then open your hand and get ready to collect the excrement from the floor. You should always do it in the cleanest way possible. For example, if the excrement is on grass, form a claw with your fingers and take them as low as possible to collect the excrement, surely also pick up a bit of grass. On the other hand, if you are on hard ground like concrete, you do not need to scratch the concrete with your fingers.

The harder the excrement is, the easier it will be to clean it, but if it is soft (like a diarrhea) it will be harder to pick it up. If you forgot to take bags before leaving home look for something on the floor so you can pick it up or go to the nearest store to ask for one. Finally do not forget to hold your dog's leash very well while you are collecting your droppings. Once you have grabbed the excrement with the bag, with your free hand fold the edges of the bag up with your fingers. Tie a knot and close the bag tightly so that it does not open when you throw it into the organic waste bin.

Use excrement catchers

If you are a person who is apprehensive and you do not like the idea of picking up excrement with a bag because of the possibility that you can get dirty then maybe it is a good idea to invest in buying an excrement catcher. You can go to your store for animals or gardening to get them. It usually comes in a kit along with a shovel and a rake. I recommend that you look for a dustpan that is resistant and that you can handle with one hand while with the other you grab your dog's leash. Also some may be prepared to put a bag at the end of the dustpan.

Remember that a dustpan will not do you any good if the excrement is soft. After your dog defecates, he prepares an open bag and picks up the excrement with the collector. If your dog has defecated in concrete it is possible that you need to help you with the shovel to collect the excrement. Picking them up on the lawn is easier, but if by chance you can not find everything together, you could help yourself with the rake. Then you must put the dustpan in the bag and open it to release the excrement inside the bag. Then tie and pull the bag.

Discard the bags of excrement

This depends on the municipal regulations, so find out where you can get rid of your dog's bags of excrement. Although you can usually throw them in cubes of organic matter, and even by the toilet in your house. With these tips on how to collect your dog's feces you can be a responsible owner and help keep the environment and your area clean.
