Abstract
Method and apparatus for disposing of animal feces including a two piece box which folds out from a collapsible flat shape. The interior of this box is layered with a moisture impermeable material which is coated with a water soluble mixture. The water soluble mixture contains an aroma and a disinfectant, so when the surface comes into contact with moist feces, the aroma and disinfectant are released. The released aroma masks the feces odor, and the released disinfectant decreases microbiological growth, making the transportation and storage of the feces more acceptable until final disposal, burial or incineration. An alternative apparatus features an interior plastic bag linear for each of the box halves.
