The best method is to keep your composter on a stand with legs and treat the legs with something to repel ants.


Ok Great! I think ill get some ant granules and put under the stand. Will they consistently be an issue that I have to deal with or when my colony becomes mature and revolving will they be repelled away?


Everyday is a new adventure.... Take it in and enjoy it while it lasts!
