Ants in My Compost Bin

2 replies

oldsilverfabergeegg · 17/04/2011 20:11

I have rather a lot - a nest even, in my compost bin. They all go a bit mad everytime I take the lid off and scuttle over everything, including me. Are they causing damage to my compost? If so what can I do? Will antbait ruin the compost? I am very proud of my compost production and wouldn't want it all to be in vain.

Any advice gratefully received. Thanks

no they're fine, they make it nice and crumbly.
