You may remember a few months ago when I put expired latex condoms in my compost tumbler…eventually the microbes gobbled them up, and they are now gone.
How do you think worms will respond to them?  My worm bin is chock full of critters other than worms, so I think that even if the worms don’t want them, everything else in the bin will eat them over time.  Let’s find out.   Does this make me a bad father?
From left to right, we have the untouched condom, the barely tampered with condom, and then a shredded condom on the right:

What’s the point of this?  Honestly, I have no idea.  It’s not like everyone has expired (or used) condoms just sitting around waiting to compost.  Well, I’ll keep you posted on the progress and of course I’ll have a dorky video at the end of the process, too.
