I just started my first compost pile. I started it not really for the compost but to do my part in reducing trash and helping the environment. So in my bin I've put a base of soil, rabbit food (I read that it was full of nitrogen) and leaves and I've slowly been adding my household trash and covering it with old grass clippings because of flies. So what I need to know is what kind of household items should I compost? I have on my list: veggie and fruit wastes, hair, tea bags, coffee grounds, dryer lint, egg shells. Is there anything else I should be composting? I have a paper shredder should I dump it out into my compost? Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you
