So they say. And it does not draw bugs and rodents? Are these compost bins currently here in TV or in other areas of the country? I get confused. Are they covered or open pit (a term I learned the other day)? Do they have drainage holes or are they completely sealed? If there are drainage holes I am sure that the insects, rodents, reptiles, etc will find a way in to eat the garbage (excuse me - biodegradable food things) that is being put into these bins.
