BALANCE COMPOST
11
Composting is a natural process to recycle food into fertilizer. It takes
time and a little practice! To prevent odors, you must balance compost
every time you add food scraps by adding sawdust pellets and baking
soda. The sawdust pellets are a “brown” item necessary to balance the
carbon-nitrogen ratio of “green” pet waste and food waste, it helps
absorb water, eliminates odors and helps break down nitrogen rich pet
waste. Baking soda aids in the balancing of food acidity. The basic
measurement that you can use is for every 2-parts pet waste you add,
add 1 part sawdust pellets. For example, if you add 2 cups of pet or
food waste, then add 1 cup of pellets.
