Feeding kitchen waste to composter?

Nov 17, 2003 0 Replies

I like to know what kitchen wastes are going into composter?


Iam planning to add used teabags as it is with thread and tag banana peals cut into 10/12 pieces. Anyother ideas? The below list says, hair, I dont know its human or pets hair? To my knowledge hair/feathers would take a very long time(years?) to get composed? Any comments?


Like to know anything other that has not listed below ?
