Is anyonecomposting Woody Pet? I can't imagine a reason why it wouldn't compostjust fine as long as it was spread out well across the pile and turnedthoroughly. But I'm not having a lot of success with my compostpiles...:(So, I thought I'd ask for your input on the WoodyPet part.

i have been composting it for as long as i have been using it,thats about 5 years.. mine is mixed in really well with everythingelse, i have also used it directly into the garden no problems..although if it's dry out and your not on a water ban it helps to wateryour compost pile

There was actually a study on Woody Pet composting. I'll see if I canfind it. Until then this was what it said on the Woody Petsite>>>>

[font="Futura, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"]COMPOSTING[/font]
[font="Futura, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"]The Uria inthe Urine is what begins the decomposition process. Because the woodfibers in our product are much smaller than shavings and sawdust, andbecause the Uria is not diluted by resins, oils, tar, and excessivewater as it is in shavings and sawdust, it begins the decompositionprocess immediately, and decomposes much faster than shavings andsawdust.[/font]

Hi Amy!!

E-mail Dave Jr directly. The dealer he found for me wasn't listed on their website for some reason. Maybe you'll get lucky, too!

I have been composting Woody Pet also. It goes eitherdirectly into the garden or on the compost heap. Since wehave so many cats, we also compost our cat litter - minus the solidwaste (poop). Urine provides nitrogen for green plantgrowth. BTW, we can still tell where the old outhouse used tobe on our property by the large, luxurious patch of grass.That outhouse was torn down about 25 years ago.

The Woody Pet and cat litter helps keep the grass clippings in thecompost heap from being so slimey. We have some spectacularblack-eyed susans that grow in mounds of used Woody Pet.Fresh rabbit droppings don't burn the way other fresh manurewould. No need to let it sit for a year or 2.

Anotheruse for used Woody Pet or cat litter - encouraging aresident skunk to move away from the house. A skunk dug hisden close to our back door and was 'fragrancing' the area.The Division of Wildlife suggested we put ammonia soaked rags down thehole at night after the skunk left to feed. The ammonia wouldcause the skunk to relocate. We utilized some well-used catlitter instead. The skunk relocated further from the house.

Hm-m-m-m-m-m, 101 uses for dirty litter and Woody Pet......


 
I too am interested in trying Woody Pet. Maybethose who have access to it can pack individual trial-size bags to sellon ebay so those who do not have access can try it. Just a thought.
 
ARRRRRRGH!!!

My local supplier of Woody Pet is out of stock, it's on backorder, and they don't know when it's coming in.

I OPENED MY LAST BAG THIS PAST WEEKEND!!!!

The next nearest supplier is almost an hour away.

Can you say, "PANIC ATTACK":scared:???
