rats in the compost heap


Recommended Posts

Dont put edible scraps in the compost because it is bound to attract rats sooner or later. I had the same problem in my last home, and Im afraid its an ongoing problem, if you catch some this week, next week there will be fresh ones arriving. grass cuttings, weeds, teabags etc is fine but nothing edible.

 

where do you propose i compost my edible food waste it needs to be done as we have over 10 tons of mashed apple every year from cider making that gets composted rats just need controlling

you said scraps, not ten tons of fecking apples. there is a difference,
