Welcome to today’s daily kōrero!

Anyone can make the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there’s no daily thread, feel free to create it!

Anyway, it’s just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.

So, how’s it going?

I'm no expert, but I believe that yes the risk does reduce over time, especially as it dries out. However, I'm pretty sure you can still get Legionnaire's Disease from garden soil even if it's not bagged compost, the risk is just lower.

Geez, did a bit of digging/mixing and all that with a mask on, and it was pretty hard! Better continuing using one when I first open up the bags.

Yeah, it's a good idea. I think it's recommended to keep it wet to reduce the amount of airborne dust as well.
