this is my first post. My 90 yr old mom lives with me. She uses the"pads" as she sometimes can't get up in time to make it to the bathroom. My problem is the odor that comes from the used pads in the trash. I live in a condo and the trash men come once a week. the trash can is kept in the garage. thank you |

In Response to INCONTINENCE: this is my first post. My 90 yr old mom lives with me. She uses the"pads" as she sometimes can't get up in time to make it to the bathroom. My problem is the odor that comes from the used pads in the trash. I live in a condo and the trash men come once a week. the trash can is kept in the garage. thank you Posted by HERSELF Welcome and thanks for the post. I can understand your concern. What has worked for me is using the same type of disposal that it used for a baby. I have a pretty large can that seals almost air tight and holds about a week's worth of stuff. If you do a search on the internet for diaper dispensers you will get lots of options. Sandy |
