Product Information

Bags do not come in a roll and are not compatible for use with a standard leash attachment bag carrier Of course, the headline feature of the Unni Pet Waste Bags is that they are compostable. They are about as verifiably compostable as you can get, adhering to the U.S. compostable standard ASTM D6400 and various European standards, including Austria's rigorous OK Compost Home, indicating that an Unni bag will biodegrade in home compost. WHY ECOHOUND. A combined 55% renewable material and post consumer recycled plastic. A simple design, small, with easy to tie handles, unscented, leak free and opaque.

While it's possible to home compost dog waste, the risks of spreading bacteria is high enough that it should only be done by experienced composters—a high heat compost, for example, can be particularly useful for sanitizing dog waste. Because of the risk of spreading bacteria, dog waste compost should not be used on food gardens.Many are made of plastic which can take hundreds of years to decompose in a landfill. Even bags that claim to be biodegradable often won't break down except under very rare and specific conditions. A 2019 scientific study found that several bags labeled as “biodegradable” survived in the open air, buried in soil, and submerged in seawater for at least three years or longer. While the verdict is still out on oxo-biodegradable bags, we recommend the eco-conscious dog poop bag buyer instead look to bags made from recycled plastic and bioplastics that are made from non-petroleum sources.

With spring now here and Ester Sunday creeping up on us, it means longer evenings, better weather and of course lots of chocolate. However it hardly seems fair that every year we humans get to enjoy all the Easter eggs we like while our four legged friends have to miss out, especially as we all know dogs and chocolate are a big NO, well think again. They're also straightforward to use, with consistent and easy-to-tear perforations between bags. They were a little harder to open than some dog poop bags we tested, and we had to take off gloves to open a bag during several walks with our volunteer English Setter mix and Mini Goldendoodle. Pooch Paper Biodegradable Dog Waste Sheets are disposable squares made out of recycled paper fiber. An alternative to bags, these sheets are 100 percent plastic-free and PFAS-free, which stands for per-and poly-fluoroalkyl substances, and are commonly referred to as "forever chemicals" because the manmade substances do not break down over time.You will also see bags that claim to be compostable. And while they may adhere to standards such as ASTM D6400 certification, most compostable bags are going to end up in landfills. Compostable bags can only be composted under very specific conditions, such as at special facilities that are uncommon in the United States. Our favorite compostable bags can also be composted at home, but composting dog waste is something that should only be done by experienced composters.
