I had an outhouse next to my Incirlik AB Turkey office, an ancient Quonset hut (with no plumbing).
It was cement block, and one stall even had a toilet instead of the bomb site holes in the floor.
I kept seeing this white powder all over the place in and around the outhouse, and asked a local maintenance man about it.
He said it was snake repellent, because they had a big Viper that lived nearby, and it liked the water on the floor of the outhouse.
It was only a few minute drive home, so I said sayonara to the outhouse with snake repellent (so I could read my
Stars and Stripes in peace).
