I fold the soiled pads in thirds lengthwise and roll them up fairly tightly before placing them in the trash. If the can gets to stinking, I'll spray into the trashbag with a 5% bleach solution that I keep on hand anyway. Bleach solution normally eradicates diarrhea smell quickly.
If the room gets stinky, you can spray an old dish towel with the bleach solution and walk around waving it through the air to eliminate odors in the room.
I used this method when my stepdaughter was using a body spray that I ended up being allergic to, plus she always used way too much of it before school. I could feel my throat closing up every morning. Tried this with the bleach towel and it removed the offending odor right away and I could breathe freely again. ( Asking her to switch scents went over real well... she put it on even heavier)
