Question: Hi, I have a HUGE worry. I’m out in the field and there is only an outhouse to use. I had a bowel movement that caused splash back from the hole in which I expelled into. I know there is at least five peoples waste in that hole. What do I do?

Brief Answer:
Immediate disinfection recommended

Detailed Answer:
Dear Sir,
I have gone through your question and I understand your concerns but you should immediately remove any fecal parts that came in contact with your skin.

Afterward, you should disinfect the contaminates areas with Dettol and water...

This should be enough if fecal matter did not come in contact with any skin break or mucous membranes.

I hope you find this helpful...
