Default Rat in compost bin


If you see a lot of rats or get them in the house then you need to
call the pest control, otherwise not. The odd one is fairly normal.

Don't put cooked food in the bin - you need a different sort of
composter for cooked food and bones.



I've got a compost bin called a "Joanna" it's abit more expensive but
impenetrable to rats as it has a solid base with tiny holes in, big
enough for worms but definitely not For rats!
It's got a tight cover and so far so good!
