Here, we are supposed to bag up any grass clippings in those paper bags you see sold at home depot/lowes/ace hardware etc. NOT in plasticleaf bags. I don't know why..I don't get to make the rules. . I only use the mower's bagger attachment in the area around the swimming pool to keep cuttings from blowing into the pool, but they only pick up that kind of trash once every other week. I usually end up with at least one full bag of green grass cuttings stored for over a week and this year, the cuttings are green and full of water. I kept the 1st couple of bags in the garage since it's been raining so much, but the odor was so bad we couldn't stand it. They are only in there less than 10-12 days. Also made us feel bad. Lately, I've put one in my little storage building/shop and when I walk in, the odor or gas drives me out so I quickly grab the bag and set it outside if it's sunny.
Not mine, but they are just like this.
My question:
Does/can green decaying grass off gas something volatile/toxic/dangerous that can make me dizzy or is it just the nasty smell of rotting vegetation?
(I truly hate 'almost' every aspect of living here, but the weather and people are great)
