From me, at least.  For a while.

While I have plenty more to say about the wonders of vermicomposting, I am afraid that I just don’t have the time to do this blog justice anymore.  However, this blog will stay up for a long time.

I’ve invited a co-blogger, and hopefully he will continue to write about his experiences as he gets a home worm composting setup up and running.  If anyone from the Denver metro area wants to do a guest post, please contact me.

I also have have removed the newsletter signup page, since I won’t be sending those out anymore.

Thanks for reading, commenting, and sending me email.  I’ve learned a tremendous amount over the past two years.

Composting Dog Poop

A long time ago, I interviewed a friend on vermicomposting dog and cat waste.  I recently found this useful article on composting dog waste from a couple of Alaska government agencies.

It includes tidbits like:

Composting can reduce the volume of dog waste by 50 percent.

and:

REMEMBER—It takes at least 10 dogs, preferably 20, to generate enough waste to maintain a bin.

Hot composting is one great way to take care of dog waste.  And this 11 page document certainly takes you through a lot of the complexities, so if you have a lot of dogs or access to large amount of dog waste, you probably want to take a read.
