Default Ideas for improving this second-generation home composting method

Wow, the wife would never tolerate that pile. I had to pitch a fit to
get two 4" square bins accepted. :-)


or use worms and let them take care of it.
they do much better in the ground where
temperatures are moderated the location can
be less visible to "the management".

most scraps can simply be buried, if done
deeply enough there's no smell or problem
with vermin/bugs. leaves are also broken
down more quickly if buried with some dirt
mixed in instead of just left in a pile on
the surface.

for bones it's much better if you can
grind them (if you don't trust your meat
source you may want to cook them well
first) before composting, but in the end
the earth's critters will take care of
them one way or another.

i worm compost a great deal and study
decomposition techniques. more fun
than a mere human should ever be allowed...
