Review: It does not harm the compost worms - Good produce and works well. I posed a question on here which no one was very sure about so I emailed the company to ask - does this product harm wildlife such as composting red worms living in the compost bin. The answer is as follows :Thank you for your enquiry, when lightly scattered as directed Vitax Compost Maker will not be harmful for wildlife including worms. As you may be aware worms will benefit most when there is a good mix to the composted material (ie if adding substantial amounts of grass cuttings try to mix in with it other richer material such as food waste)." This is great news and makes me happy.
Review: Looks good value for money - Looks good value for money have added it to compost bins and waiting to see if it works. Don’t carry it by the handle as it is very weak and came off while I carried it, fortunately it didn’t have far to fall so only spilt a little of the granules.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this suitable for speeding up the composting of dog poo in a dog poo composter?**
A: It is not suitable for that purpose, should be leaves and plant material. Try Google or dog owner sites for that purpose.

**Q: Has anyone used this to help compost just leaves (Beech leaves)?**
A: Yes. Used in a purpose built large wooden compost bins filled with machine shredded pivet and beech cuttings from hedge cuttings in the autumn. Admittedly, a bit dry and twiggy. I probably added rotten apples from the orchard too and left for a year, with a bin rota system for the following year's hedge cuttings. Produced good compost which I mixed with wet leaves from DIY wire leaf bins and top soil to produce mulch for beneath beech hedges.

VITAX 6CM253 Compost Maker is easy to use and really helps speed up the composting process. Just sprinkle it in and it gets to work quickly. A 2.5 kg tub goes a long way. Great for keeping the compost heap healthy and active.
