I have a simple wormery making compost : only vegetable matter goes in,
no meat. We have no problem with vermin though this could be due to
living in the city.

Much better to make your own, I used to get B&Q compost but their quality
has gone down - bits of polythlene and wood (and some with mould on it).

Hi Fake Judith,

I would have thought living in the city would result in more problems
with vermin, not less. Country mice, as we all know, like seeds and
such, while Town Mice like domestic leavings.

We get mice every harvest time. There's a field at the end of the garden.
