Pet Waste Stations - Choose Degradable Liners for Your Station

Pet Waste Stations

If you have pet waste stations, you should always choose degradable dog poop bags to stock them with.  For most personnel that buy and/or maintain pet waste stations, this is usually the most common choice for refill bags.  

Most pet waste stations usually come with a certain amount of degradable trash liners for the trash cans.  Frequently however, once a park or property runs out of the initial supply of degradable liners, the decision is made to use standard, non-degradable trash liner for the cans.

Using a non-degradable trash liner in your pet waste station defeats the purpose of degradable refill bags and really doesn't save much money either.

Degradable dog waste bags dispensed from your pet waste station are better for the environment than standard plastic bags.  They degrade over time and won't pollute the environment for years to come.  The use of non-degradable, standard plastic trash bags in pet waste stations makes little sense.  

If pet waste station users are placing a degradable dog poop bag in a non-degradable trash bag, the end result defeats the whole purpose of using a degradable bag in the first place.  The degradable bags and the dog waste will remain in the non-degradable plastic trash bags for years to come instead of degrading harmlessly over one or two years.

Furthermore, the cost difference between a standard plastic bag and degradable plastic bag for your pet waste station is minimal.  If you're paying for degradable dog poop bags, reward your investment in the environment with degradable trash bags.
