The composters that the county supply if you take a compostng class are great. They are rodent resistant & made from recycled plastic. To reduce spells & rodents, you gotta remember to feed your pile right, equal amounts of dry brown leaves & stuff with green wets. You can also get worm composter from the county, by signing up for the worm class, great for veggie matter kitchen scraps. We haven't done that yet, but do use are blender to munch up our kitchen scraps. If you have the land, goats, sheep & piggies do this well.
