  1.  @Eralen00  when I lived in Philly, the composted sludge was made available for free to city residents, the remainder being divided into what was sold for use as fertilizer, what went unsold, dumped. I picked up quite a bit for my small backyard garden, grew shit tons of veggies in the mixture of soil and composted sludge. Pathogens get killed off by the composting organisms and the culture is actually measured to ensure pathogens are killed off. Downside, occasionally in summer, the compost piles would spontaneously combust, as composting does generate heat. No, not joking about using it as fertilizer, it's a practice as old as farming.

  2.  @lapislazarus8899  itchy noses are why sleeves exist. Did military EMS, what I'd end up with on my gloves and sleeves, well, that's the stuff of nightmares. One either had clean sleeves and could rub one's nose or one learned to just deal with it.
