No Stinky Pumpkin Guts!

10/29/2013

Have you carved your pumpkin yet?  I was really excited to spend some quality time bonding as a family while we carved our pumpkin.  However, as soon as we took the top off the pumpkin my little man yelled “Eww…that smells gross…” and then ran off while my husband and I created our masterpiece.  This is the same child who hates the feel of sand in his shoes, so I shouldn’t be surprised that he was less than thrilled to squeeze some pumpkin guts.

Luckily, that was the last complaint I heard about smells.  We took part in the Glad Gruesome Challenge and left all those glorious guts in our compost bin over the weekend to see what happened.

Fresh Pumpkin Guts

4 Days Later

The result?  Four days later there was no smells, no condensation, and no leeks! Glad OdourGuard® Compostable Bags neutralize trash odours with Febreze® freshness.  Not an overpowering fragrance, just a nice clean smell.  I’m thinking that I may hide some of my son’s Halloween candy in there 😉
