FAQ-QUESTION 11

Must I cover the compost bin?
  1. Yes.
  2. No.

Sorry, the correct answer is "b.  No."

In Florida, covers are not necessary for environmental reasons. However, if you need to deter animals from getting into your compost, a cover will be required. (Covers are often used in northern climates where snow accumulations could compact the compost and saturate it with moisture.)
