I’m all for composting, and I do what I can but the fruit flies are gnats that gather can be a real pain in the ass so I had to cut down.

Do you have an indoor or outdoor bin? Make sure the actual food scraps are covered and it helps keep the bugs down. Get yourself some red wrigglers to eat everything up faster

I live in an apt building. I compost because I recently got into gardening. I started with sealed jars under my sink starting small because I wasn’t sure how much compost I need for the plants I’d be growing in pots. I also have a small tub with a lid outside in the back yard area that contains soil leaves sticks and rotting vegetables and fruit. it’s in the far corner under some weeds and I keep it cracked open so flies and other insects can help compost it on top of adding extra nitrates.
