Ewwwwwwww.... I'm sure it'll go away with time as long as the cats don't keep coming.

Your fruits sound good! I've got blueberries and raspberries that I just planted this year. But yes, things are expensive getting started and I don't have a car either. I rented a car last month to go to the Bronx compost giveback. Last year, I hauled the compost from the Brooklyn compost giveback on the subway! If you can rent a car, I'd recommend going in the Fall if they have an event. The compost is free and gorgeous.

I know time will do it, but meanwhile it will take time for me to fill in the bare areas. I've used Nature's Miracle in the past on pavers, but not sure if it's safe for the soil. The largest area is about 7x7 and I have not seen a single earthworm yet :-(

I've lusted over the low cost compost bin and free compost, but have no way of getting them home. Maybe call car service on site. Hmmm, if it were closer to Bay Ridge.

They use lime to deoderize outhouses maybe some lime will sweeten the soil and keep the smell down.

Anything that smells, bury it, it is good fertilizer! At least that's what I do with it.
