I wasn't thrilled with the idea of having to throw my ostomy pouch in the trash and having a trash bag fool of poo. my sister came up with a great idea. She told me to buy a Diaper Genie.

If it could hold a bunch of dirty diapers and keep odor out,then it should work for dirty ostomy bags as well. So I bought one from wall mart and gave it a try. I am pleased at how well it works.It can hold a lot of bags and keeps odor out as well.

I have thought about a diaper genie but haven't gotten one. I am glad to hear a report about how it works.  It does seem like an obvious solution. Thanks, Carol 'dawneagle'

That is what I do too:  zip lock bags, cover pouch in tp first then zip lock bags.  That way you can easily take them with you and don't have to have a big diaper genie thing
