We live in a rural upstate NY area and have an ongoing issue with a bear knocking over our bin. This happens about 5-8 times a year. Now we have two kids and don’t have the time to deal with the cleanup and are frankly really tired of it. The other issue this fall was a daily dig up by a skunk. We’re thinking of building a cedar box around the bin with varmint wire underneath. That way, no critters can dig under the bin. It might help from the bear knocking it over, too. Any advice or thoughts on this approach?
Sincerely, two tired parents of littles
PS we don’t garden (yet) but are doing this as I have a deep commitment to food scrap composting and absolutely refuse to landfill organics.
