paper in their heaps, I put basically mail that I don't want any more,

shredding it! and I rip the plastic off the envelopes.


I put kitchen paper into my compost but not anything other kind of paper.
How long does it take for other papers to rot down Sheila ?

Hi Val,
I put any paper including kitchen roll. I just rip it all up.
I always have a bin full of red worms chewing away.
I have three bins going. Never really thought about how long it take for
paper to rot down.
