Talkback: Composting waste
in Talkback
Excellent idea, but i was composting this year, adding all and sundry. The problem i then had was RATS.
I now only compost my garden waste.
Does anyone know how to compost without our little ratty being involved?

to your heap that is probably the problem for what you can add visit

But fruit and vegetable waste should be fine. Try putting a lid if you have not already. Also try to use your heap regularly because according to recycle now rats are shy and don't like disturbance
I agree with Tea Lady, using Bokashi is a great way to compost. Apart from the Em-powered compost being wonderful for the soil, apparently the "pickled" kitchen scraps are unattractive to vermin. Hope this helps.
grounds from the coffee m/cs in my
local supermarket, they are very pleased to give them to me all i do is crumble them up and spread them all
over the compost .I have read that they are
good for keeping slugs/snails at bay
