All sewer water is treated in a waste water plant and does not have the consistency once all of the waste water has been treated. As far as drugs or foreign harmful substances in the raw sewage, it must be a minuscule amount since it’s a small (or tiny) percentage of the population, it gets diluted with water when flushed (/household bath and sink water) and get treated at a waste water plant.

I think this is Far Safer than the lawn chemical fertilizers that are sold in mass quantities from big box stores and those applied by commercial lawn services.

I guess many of us have the ability to overthink things and to try to predict what is most dangerous in our environment today without ever knowing for certain what the largest dangers really are.
Perhaps it’s the radiation fro WiFi that’s causing cancer but again, we can only guess and have our own individual opinions as to what’s dangerous and what’s safe.

What would they know? Their employees are like a revolving door, I see different one monthly and I would feel pretty pathetic asking one of them a technical question other than where to find something in the store and if they are really skilled, they will be able to answer that question!

I pick up some Milo last week. The store was stocked full of it. I have a feeling that will change in the next few weeks.

All it takes is a couple of warm days, and then the garden department at HD and Lowe’s will be busy. I have two bags left over from last year, but plan on picking up a couple of bags this week.

I'm moving into a new build in August. I hope it doesn't need a massive lawn reno. But I know Milo is safe to put down in August anyway.

When I see it at Lowes or Home Depot, I buy twice the amount I need since it always sells out before mid summer, start least as far as I have seen! Better you have more since it doesn’t go bad.

Good luck with the new house and Milorganite 2ill only make it that much better.

I like the schedule discussed in the previous video.
