What we compost and feed our Florida Native Composting Worms.
We compost material that has not been exposed to
pesticides,herbicides,fertilizers,growth Hormones,and animal
medications . What you put in is what you get out. We do not compost
grains,newspaper and cardboard .Certain materials contain chemicals
that do not break down. Grass clipping, shrubbery, and manures are of
great concern. Certain Grains are genetically design to spray the
crops with Roundup. It is important with composting with a Native Red
Worm to Florida. We have found in 51 years of composting that toxins
build up if you compost with contaminated material. Grains ,Lawn
clippings,vegetable mater from commercial growing operations or Lawns
carry excessive amounts of Pesticides,Herbicides which in turn kill the
composting Worms.We find that manure from large dairy farms could have
antibiotics or growth hormones. When obtaining any compost from animal
manure such as cows ,horses, rabbits remember most people medicate and
this comes out in the manure. Cow manure from Grass feed cows has been
a good source for great compost. It important to get live microbes
when buying compost. The amount of moisture is very important. Dry
compost has less microbes. Fresh Compost with a fair amount of moisture
is full of life.
Most Animal feeds have dangerous additives .

Despite opposition from scientists, farmers and
consumers, the US currently allows dairy cows to be injected
with recombinant bovine growth hormone (rBGH), also known as
recombinant bovine somatotropin (rBST). Developed and
manufactured by the Monsanto Corporation, this genetically
engineered hormone forces cows to artificially increase milk
production by 10 to 15 percent.

New Herbicide Threatens to Contaminate Compost.
(Ronkonkoma, NY -- May 25, 2011) The U.S. Composting Council (USCC) is
warning composters to watch out for grass clippings contaminated with a
new herbicide from DuPont. Imprelis has been registered in every state
except California and New York for use by licensed applicators on lawns
and other turf areas for control of broadleaf weeds like dandelion,
clover and plantain. The label clearly states that clippings from
treated grass should not be used as mulch or put in a compost pile.

Is the compost you are buying have a unfriendly order.
Compost is great stuff. (Of course it is not chemical free; all substances are made of chemicals.) Under
ideal conditions, it is a safe, environmentally friendly way of recycling yard waste and returning nutrients
to the soil. The telltale sharp, sour odor helps identify a "bad" batch of compost. There are other
contaminants, however, whose presence is unexpected, subtle, and injurious to plant and human health.
What goes in comes out. We Compost material that has not been exposed to
pesticides,herbicides,fertilizers,growth Hormones,and animal medications
is seldom considered.
Here is a Helpful link in what to consider composting.
Grains that are genetically design for
the crop to be sprayed with Roundup and used in Vermicomposting have
serious effects on the worms.(Scientists reveal negative impact of
Roundup Ready GM crops.
The greater Percentages of soy beans and corn crops use this chemical.

Cardboard, Great Dangers.
I had purchased new boxes from a local moving company. It turns out a
lot of chemicals are used to manufacture the boxes, from treating the
wood pulp, to gluing the paper, and dyeing & bleaching the
cardboard. And my "bad" chemical, sulfur, is used in the process. In
fact several classes of sulfur are employed in the process.
