Black tank odor
Anybody know of a home-made deoderizer to use in the black tank rather than a store bought one? We ran out whill dry camping and would like to see if there is a back-up.

Copied from the Geo Method (Charles Bruni). I would recommend the entire process when you're able, but this may address your current circumstance:
"Occasionally, I pour a half gallon of liquid bleach into each tank to deodorize, sanitize and disinfect them. I add the bleach when the tank is about half full, and then continue to use the tank normally until it is full and ready to dump. I no longer use the blue toilet chemical because it isn't necessary. I have no odors coming from my black water tank. The chlorine bleach kills the bacteria, which is primarily responsible for waste water tank odor. Generic brand liquid bleach is cheap and very effective."
