Making sure your home insurance covers damaged property may be priority number one, but insuring your family's personal liability is an equally important part of the insurance coverage for your home.
Dairy Products. Milk, yogurt, butter, cream and sour cream are all bad choices for a compost pile. As these ingredients start to rot, the compost will emit an increasingly foul odor. Dairy products also attract pests like rodents and flies. Do not add bones, meat, animal fat, whole eggs or other animal waste in the compost pile.
Compost Materials. Almost any organic material is suitable for composting. Your composter or compost pile needs a proper ratio of carbon-rich materials, or âbrowns,â and nitrogen-rich materials, or âgreens.â Among the brown materials are dried leaves, straw, and wood chips. Nitrogen materials are fresh or green, such as grass clippings and kitchen scraps.
