Dead Feeder fish disposal?

[screaminleeman]

Hi,

I have a guestion about what to do with my dead feeder fish in a pinch. We have had two consecutive blizzards and I can not get in the vacinity of the compost pile to dump the ones that do not survive parasite treatment in the Quaranteen tanks like I normally do!

I have a septic system and do not believe that it is anywhere near as bad to "flush" them down the toilet as it would be in an urban/ suburban are with sewage systems.

I have been stuffing them if a plastic bag and keeping them frozen until the snow thaws enough to get out onto the property, but I have run out of space and the carcuses are grossing me out.

Is it OK to flush them?

i freeze all feeders. they die humanely (i think) and none of the bodies get wasted...and all the parasites killed. then toss them to the fish. they are only a treat though..
