Tracy,
Hi!!!!!! I remember that you said that the Litter Bags will be studied for the next few years. Will you find out the results of the final study of them or not?

Kayla,

Hello! Thank you for your question. The litter bag decomposition study will last five years. I hope to stay in contact with the scientists at least once a year to find out the yearly results of the study.

Great question!

Regarding the litter bag exeriment... I'm quite confuse of the mesh's size (nylon bag). From my literature, some use 0.25mm, 2mm etc. Hope you can help me. Thanks

Hello Susan! We used 2mm fiberglass window screen mesh for some samples and .25mm for others. Thank you for your question!
