Alternatively, you can also expose any part of your fortres's {{DFtext|Inside |6:0}}{{DFtext|Dark Subterranean|0:1}} tiles to sunlight and then cover them again with constructed floors or walls. Such tiles will become {{DFtext|Inside |6:0}}{{DFtext|Light |6:1}}{{DFtext|Above Ground|2:1}} and thus any refuse stored there will not generate any miasma. |
