  • Composting bin for facilitating breakdown of organic material
    Patent number: 10875816
    Abstract: A composting bin for breaking down organic material includes a container having an interior and an opening. The interior includes a plurality of regions, including a first region and a second region. The first region and the second region are configured to support decomposable organic material. In operation, a user positions decomposable organic material in, for example, the first region. The user then provides a composting animal in the first region. The user covers the composting bin to inhibit light from entering the composting bin. Upon completion of the composting process, the user causes the composting animal to move from the first region to the second region. The user causes the composting animal to move from the first region to the second region by allowing light to enter the first region, and/or providing food in the second region while denying food in the first region.
