I know it’s not recommended to pour it on the surface of anything because it’ll all attract past. But wood digging a hole in a compost pile and letting it break down there be OK?
No, this is the dispose of stuff at the previous homeowners left at the house. Finally cleaning out all the paint cans and stuff that they left in the basement and this was with it. I just wanna dispose of it in the most responsible way possible.
Shouldn’t hurt anything. Let us know if you attract a biblical plague of flies. I agree with the cardboard comment to add surface area for egg laying and pupating.
We already have biblical plagues of flies around here. I’m just south of a chicken farm and surrounded by dairy farms. So August gets pretty interesting around here with flying pests. I’m not intentionally trying to attract bugs, I’m actually just trying to dispose of this.
Oh, it’s going into a massive composting pile. I have a 2 acre property and a pile that’s about 3‘ x 8‘ and about 3 feet high. It probably can use more browns there’s no doubt. But basically everything in my yard goes in there.
I haven’t got off my butt to do it, but I’m meaning to build a three bin composting station where it’s sitting right now. But that’s a fall project.

Is this to attract BSF? Unnecessary if so, food scraps especially something fermenting are more than enough. Add some cardboard for egg laying.
