We were camping last week in the BC Interior, using our faithful old bucket
under the drain, and I discovered one reason to use a graywater tank � when
I dumped out the bucket the first morning we were there, the last thing to
emerge was a dead mouse, considerably bloated.  I guess the poor thing
climbed in during the night and couldn�t get back out.  We were pretty
grossed out and also felt some pity for the poor creature dying in that way.
I had never before considered a graywater tank, but I�m thinking about it
now.  I wonder if these babies work on the Canadian vanagons?
