I think they tried but gave up. There are easier pickings in our general area for them to snack on. I'd rather deal with bears than rats, I don't know how you'd keep them from finding a way in. Maybe build a cat house nearby and employ some natural predation strategies...

I never seem to be able to get the quantity of ingredients needed to make a good size pile that will heat up. I've been buying it a couple of towns over but it's not great stuff. I use it for mulch and it will work into the soil eventually. I'm doing no till.

Speak to us of compost. For the past few years I haven't had easy access to my familiar premade bins and have been roughing it by digging holes and covering them with something heavy to keep the pests out. It's been so-so; it does seem to help the garden somewhat, but we get a lot of snails. I'm hoping our next home will bring us somewhere with more acreage so we have more space for a big bin, maybe even a DIY pallet bin. How is your compost going?
