Default composting shredded paper


"Mark Fawcett" wrote in message
om...
I was wondering if anyone has any experience of composting shredded
computer printout or indeed if it can or should be done. Any major
drawbacks?
Where I work they seem to get rid of large quantities on regular basis
so I was wondering if I was missing an opportunity.

We add a fair bit of shredded newspaper to our kitchen bin/heap the worms
reduce it along with everything else, whether the ink has any detremental
effects I have no idea I am afraid.
