Sanitation: One of the most important preparedness discussions.

[rbeau30]

Clothing, why waste water washing clothes, 2 pr pants, 3-4 undergarments 1-2 shirts, plus over garments for foul / inclement weather. ? Body excrement, unless i'm hunkered down, side of the road small hole, dump, recover hole, remove one self from area.

True, I would say clothing would only need to be washed once in a bleu moon? After they become so stiff with caked on dirt. (one thing that shows like the walking dead fail to illustrate. Everyone is sporting pretty clean-looking clothes.) the soapy solution could be utilized indefinately, tis why I have lids for the buckets.

#1 and #2... in my SHTF situation in a semi-suburbia part of Aurora, I won't be able to go to the side of the road and do my business without attracting attention is why I thought... next to the 6 foot fence behind a tarp over a ditch... or inside (with 10 gallon bags, etc etc).
