Plumbers are mostly dealing with single-household water and sewer/septic systems, and not the nasty crap you get from a city drain when it’s overflowed from too much rain.
They also wash their clothes when they get off work, and don’t stick them (still wet and sewery) in tupperware for a year to rot and grow icky organisms.
Chuck em. Not for the fecal matter, but because there is no way to know what chemicals might be in that sewer water.
Abso-Lutely! See you next year!
I think I’ve seen this shit on an episode of ‘Hoarders.’
I would have thought that, regardless of a bit of poop contamination (which wouldn’t faze me, but then I have an infant daughter), the fabric would have deteriorated and rotted after a year spent festering and damp in a container?
By someone else’s sewage tainted clothing?
In the “old” days my wife and I rinsed soiled cloth diapers, (remember them).in the commode before putting them in a pail to be washed. Even then we used chlorine bleach to get rid of the stains and all.
How did you deal with zombie stains?
Damn, now we’ll never get to ask why the hell she put the shirt in the container too.
There’s bacteria everywhere , the clothes only had to be washed.
Unfortunate that we weren’t told if the OP went on to develop a deadly fungal infection from the spores released from the items in the container… It is possible to inhale too many fungi spores , eg when turning the compost in the garden.
