This explains why I sometimes find thinned down bags in the worm bin

is what I normally do with anything that isn't "fully digested" yet.

I don't see any reason to start removing staples, though --- I think
they rust away in the worm bin.


I don't have a worm bin but I do put my teabags on my compost heap where
they rot away very well. Might be due to the chicken poo that acts as an
accelerator?


But what brand do you drink, Tina?

Typhoo usually, does this make a difference? Of course not and I appreciate
your humour.
