Hello,
I work in a restaurant and can get all the veggie scraps I can stuff in my
trunk. I am worried about putting them in a compost pile because the majority
are from outside the US. I can tell just by looking at them that most of them
have a layer of wax, and who know what kind of chemicals are under the wax. If
the compst pile is hot enough will it break down any chemicals, or should I
pass on this.
Thanks,
Reiki Ruth
