Outdoor Sand Pit - Cover?


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hi, we were told some years ago that outdoor sand pits should not be covered as the condensation formed on the inside of the lid contains a bacteria which can make children poorly. This info came from a advisory teacher but im struggling to see why so many places provide pits with lids if this is the case. Is this a Old Wifes Tale again ???

Cat pee and s*** or possible condensation. I know which I prefer.

I've never heard of this one, again I know what I'd prefer to prevent.

However, depending on size of sandpit, and thinking this may relate to plastic sand pits, how about putting in a piece of old sheet or towelling on top of the sane before the lid is put on to absorb most of the condensation, it can be removed each day ?
