This is to ensure all the animal waste has been decomposed properly.  It should smell like beautiful composted soil. This way you won't be putting your trowel into semi-decomposed doggie doos which could be really stinky.\n\nDepending on what sort of soil you have will depend on how long they need to rest. If you have really bad clay soil it can take longer whereas sandy soil is quicker as the contents leach away quicker. Of course, you don't need to empty them until they have filled up with soil which can take up to a year or more depending on your garden and how you rotate filling them. Once it is too full to put anymore waste in then you can let one rest to fully decompose, and then empty it.\n\nThe Black Recycled Compots are very slightly softer \u0026amp; weaker than the Green Compots.  The little tabs on the lid can potentially  break if you stand on them. I personally recommend getting the green ones if you are likely to put them in a place in the garden where people are likely to step. as they will last longer, can be recycled more times, and don't break if you stand on them. Because the material currently used to produce the Black Pots is better quality than previous models I now guarantee them for 2 years.  The same as the Green Compots.  But ideally try not to step on them.\n\nTo read greater details about how to use a Compot click here \u003ca href=\"\/products\/compost_bin\"\u003eGreen Compot x 1 \u003c\/a\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eArticles coming soon\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\nWhat can I put in my Compots with my dog waste (coming soon)\n\nWhat if my dogs want to dig it up (coming soon)\n\nBlack Soldier Flies and Animal Waste (coming soon)\n\n\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/black-recycled-compots\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShop Black Recycled Compots Now\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e","brand":"Direct Compost Solutions","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55020561760628,"sku":"CLR15","price":358.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1006\/7171\/7748\/files\/Recycled_Black_Compot_x_15.webp?v=1785570400","url":"https:\/\/directcompostsolutions.com\/products\/recycled-compot-x-15-5l-compost-bin","provider":"DIRECT COMPOST SOLUTIONS","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
