Bio bag, a new world
Decomposition in a natural, land setting is comparable to that of paper, leaves and food waste; in fresh or salt water, decomposition generally occurs within eight to 14 months. (However, disposal of bio bags in our oceans, lakes, rivers and streams is still environmentally irresponsible. ) Bio bags are also shelf stable, meaning they will not begin to decompose until they are exposed to the earth and its microorganisms. Bio bags are available in many different sizes that are suitable for household use. Small sized bio bags are perfect for use in kitchen composting bins; as a matter of fact, the entire contents, bag and all, can be disposed of in a home compost pile.
