Q & A

During my presentation at the library many in the audience seemed to be knowledgeable about composting.  A couple of concerns were raised such as attracting rodents and whether or not to put weeds in the compost bin, such as dandelions, which might be a way for these unwanted weeds to spread.  I did a little research on this and found that in a mature compost pile the high temperature will destroy pathogens and weed seed.
