Bugs need air too!

For those of us that work outdoor, there is no shortage of fresh air. However, it is very imperative that your compost heap has fresh air too.

The reason is that the accommodating bacteria and other bugs in your compost are aerobic organisms and need air to live. Because of this, it is very important to make sure that you use the right material to build your heap with.

The reason for wanting to make compost is because of the disastrous results that can be seen all over the world of not adding organic matter to the soil regularly.

The wealth of soil feeding materials that is found in the unwanted vegetables and of other plants such as weeds, leaves and grass mowing, should be conserved and used in the compost heap.
