How Do I Sanitize Soil from Dog Poop

Question

How do I sanitize soil from dog poop to grow vegetables?

Answer 1

In areas where animals have been known to 'go potty,' it normally takes about a year for any pathogens that might have been in their manure to die off. If you cannot wait that long, you could always construct your garden using raised beds. This is a great way to handle any uncertainties about the soil and is beneficial for the plants (and people who may have issues with bending).
