Just two weeks to compost

Just two weeks to compost
For many of us the kitchen waste goes out in the green bin and gets taken away to be composted. In fact, as much as thirty percent of household waste can be composted at home and one of the easiest ways to make your own rich humus for the garden is with a Mantis ComposTumbler. Working on the principle of rapidly building and stabilising a heat core, the ComposTumbler can produce dark, rich compost in just fourteen days. You just pile into the drum organic waste from the kitchen and garden, including coffee grounds and tea leaves together with dead flowers and plants, even weeds, grass clippings, leaves, vegetables and fruit, as well as animal manure. Drop in an activator and give the ComposTumbler five turns each day for a couple of weeks. The temperature inside the drum gets hot enough to kill weed seeds, while air vents and drainage keep the waste materials from becoming soggy. After fourteen days you have compost for the garden borders, with no mess or odours and the minimum work. There is a range of sizes of ComposTumbler to suit your needs from the original (the design dates back forty years) that holds up to 635 litres, to compact versions and the ComposT-Twin, a two-bin compost tumbler that holds 700 litres and allows the compost to cook in one chamber while you're filling the next. Why waste your kitchen waste when you can be composting at home and deriving the benefit by recycling it as fertiliser around the garden? Mantis ComposTumblers are available from Mantis authorised dealers or through Mantis UK Limited call 0800 840 0888 or visit http://mantis.uk.com/mantis-compostumbler-comparison.asp
