9. Plant Growth
When you compost, seeds from your veggie scraps may actually grow into vegetable plants. What was that? A garden without even trying? Sounds good to us.
10. Compost Everything
You can compost more than you think. Never know what to do with that lint from your dryer? Now you do! You can add it to the compost pile. And it’s not just lint, you don’t have to throw away tissues or paper towels anymore because you can compost those too.
11. Fewer Trash Bags
As composting becomes a new habit, you’ll of course use fewer trash bags which is essentially like leaving money in your pocket…forever.
12. Pest Control
One of our favorite composting benefits is that it’s a natural pesticide, keeping the nasty bugs away and the helpful ones around.
