I put the doo in there then fresh grass cuttings on top and layered like that. Also put some riddex in there. Maybe I didn’t put enough water?? I also have sort of clay type soil. Maybe it’s not composting fast enough because of that. I’m not sure if you’re supposed to turn this because I sure don’t want to. I really wanted it to work so not sure what to tell people about this. Any helpful comments or how everyone else is doing would be helpful.

They mention that to reach temperatures high enough to kill pathogens you need to fill a 3-5 cubic foot bin, and you have to turn the pile and monitor the temperature. And even if you do manage it properly, still keep it and the finished compost away from any edible gardening areas.

My 45 pound dog has never ate anything but a natural diet and there's very little waste. You have so much dog waste is you are feeding them bagged food that is full of grain they cannot digest it goes in one end and out the other. So make your Dog waste bin but also feed your dog the proper diet to stop all the waste to begin with.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1929847886490948308.post-52745602735420477282017-09-24T05:57:27.381-06:002017-09-24T05:57:27.381-06:00We put our doggie doo in our hot compost bin.
