Amendments, fertilizers, and mulches are by-products of compost bins. The containers in question hold dark-colored, fresh-smelling, nutrient-rich organic matter at the end of properly monitored decomposition of recyclable materials and therefore serve as sources of soil enricheners and weed-controllers.
Sealed compost bins help control odors, keep pests away, and speed up the composting process by creating a controlled environment for decomposition.
Aeration and convenience are reasons why many compost bins are plastic. Plastic bins facilitate the aeration that composting requires to break carbon- and nitrogen-rich recyclables down into dark-colored, fresh-smelling, nutrient-rich organic matter called compost or humus. They tend to be easier to make and to move.
The advancement of the process of breakdown of compostable materials is the way in which microbes can be useful in compost bins. The microbes in question may appear as beneficial bacteria and fungi. They decompose carbon- and nitrogen-rich recyclables and thereby generate the energy and heat which ensure efficient decomposition in less than a year.
Yes, hoverflies nest in compost. The insects in question (Syrphidae family) may be attracted to compost heaps, piles, and piles and to uncovered compost bins and containers. They particularly will be attracted to carbon- and nitrogen-rich materials -- especially kitchen scraps and plant parts -- which are in the process of breaking down into dark-colored, fresh-smelling, nutrient rich humus.
Compost consist of food scraps and other organic materials so f ungi feeds on the living or dead tissues of plants or animals. The fungi is already feeding on the leftovers, helping with the decomposistion, now it is releasing its spores from its fruiting body.

To ensure your compost bins are rodent-proof, use a sturdy container with a tight-fitting lid, avoid putting meat or dairy products in the compost, and regularly turn the compost to discourage rodents from nesting.

Yes, compost bins need holes for proper aeration and drainage to ensure the composting process is effective and successful.
There are certainly compost bins that can be kept in the house year round. The website "http://www.naturemill.com/" provides composters designed for inside use.
Compost bins do not necessarily require a lid for proper functioning, but having a lid can help regulate moisture levels and keep pests out.
No, caterpillars cannot be put in compost bins. Caterpillars represent the larval stages of butterflies and moths. A compost bin will not support the life cycles and natural histories that lepidopterans must experience to breed, feed and fly.
Sealed compost bins help control odors, keep pests away, and speed up the composting process by creating a controlled environment for decomposition.
