But thanks for the suggestion.

Beth -- if you recall from any previous composting you may have done, there is no odor as long as you compost properly (no animal or dairy products).
Any compost odor is non-offensive, if you have any odor at all.

Also, regarding a previous comment, you don't have to worry about critters attempting to get into the composter (they usually can't).
Critters aren't interested because it's all vegetation.
