This topic is about a clever way to dispose of used ostomy pouches. Instead of throwing them directly into the household trash, you can use a Diaper Genie, specifically the original model, to manage the waste more effectively. The original model is preferred because it allows you to tie off your own sections of liner, which can be more convenient.

Here are some helpful tips and alternatives for ostomy-bag disposal:

1. Consider using dog poo bags. They are great for sealing individual pouches and can help contain odors.

2. Many ostomy suppliers offer lightly scented, biodegradable disposal bags. These can be a good option for managing waste. It's worth asking your supplier or checking your prescription list to see if these are available to you.

3. If you're in the UK, it's good to know that the NHS provides these scented degradable bags, along with other ostomy supplies, free of charge.
