My Coloplast one piece pouches come with 1/2 as many disposal bags as there are pouches. Why ? What do you all use for disposal odor control ? Thanks

My Coloplast one piece pouches come with 1/2 as many disposal bags as there are pouches.

Has this always been the case?

If I'm out of those included bags, I'll use basic kitchen catcher bags, which seem to work well, at least long enough to make it to my outdoor garbage bag.

I know that some people swear by pet poop/litter bags, and they are designed to contain pet waste.

Ive even heard of Diaper Genie and similar systems being used for ostomy bags, although that's a bit of an investment. 

Another alternative is a product I reviewed, which are designed for ostomy bags, but are more expensive than standard trash bags: https://www.veganostomy.ca/attiva-seal-n-toss-review/

@veganostomy It's been like that it seems since I began using them 5 yrs ago

 

I've been using these https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00J8SIFAC/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

but was wondering what others use

@grw How do they work for you? Seems like a better value than the product I linked in the review 👍

@veganostomy They work well, Coloplast one piece fits, but is snug.
