LMAO. Literally.
The worms last indefinitely. When they expire, they turn into compost. In the meantime, surprise!!!!, there are baby worms. I'm guessing if they use worms in Spain/France, they simply replenish them every summer.
Around here, we're not allowed to put food waste in the garbage. We're REQUIRED to compost it by law. Alot of people use worms.
I actually was thinking maybe that solar gizmo might actually be an emergency satellite receptor.

Now that I think about it, you can evidently use dried dung as a water filter, and in developing countries they often use dried animal dung in lieu of firewood. So, after a long time drying, it must be inert.
I've seen human poop being pulled out of one of those composting privies. Really, it doesn't look dangerous. Nor does it smell like faeces.
Gosh, the wild directions WS can take you in...

But all this is to say, I hope LE looked at the privies at the Refuge. I've been saying this since Day 1. You could trip in a privy and hit your head. You could get dizzy and hit your
head. You could succumb to cramps from chia seeds ingested without enough water...
