It's a hold your nose and don't breathe deeply experience.  The ones I have
used had a chemical in them that masks the odor and also inhibits bacterial
action to prevent the fermentation that makes the odor worse.  Same stuff the
RV crowd puts into its holding tanks.

If you are emptying a boom box used by others, also, wear goggles and gloves. 
Spatter could carry pathogens, especially nasty to eyes.
