Microbialogic

In 1995, we realized that a small and fragmented market existed for natural bacterial products that could reduce odors and digest waste solids in outdoor toilets. This fact was brought to our attention by a seasonal fire lookout at Glacier National Park in Montana who had to live and deal with these problems all summer long.

In talking with Federal recreation and maintenance people shortly thereafter, we quickly discovered that no product existed for this purpose alone. Commercially available septic tank and RV holding tank treatments had been adapted and tried with limited success. Many of the parks, forests and recreation areas we spoke with used nothing at all and had no plans to change. Offensive odor complaints and costly waste solids buildup problems were viewed as inescapable problems in the operation of these types of toilets.
