Hi! I am having some trouble understanding the exact requirements for a willow feeder to work and as I have ADHD, reading all the very long forum threads is very hard for me.
I built an indoor feeder (wooden box with lid,
urine diverter,
bucket for poo). I understand that some sort of ventilation is required, and I can tell because it stinks already after only two uses, but I don't get it yet. I've seen some pipes just stuck into the sawdust in the "change a willow feeder bin"
BB, but I guess those are for drying the lower part, not actually ventilating the toilet.
What can I do to fix this? Is there a document somewhere detailing the build?
I also am wondering - it needs to be airtight apart from that, right? The toilet seat I bought has little knobs between the seat and the ceramic (on a regular toilet) and also between the lid and the lower part. That way, there is quite a gap. Are there any airtight seats that arent made of plastic? The plastic one I had before sealed much better, but I bought bamboo this time for obvious reasons.
