Adding bacon to a residential compost bin or pile is not recommended.
The heat generated by these systems is not sufficient to break down meat, bones, oils and fats.
Even a small amount of bacon can attract pests and animals, and the smell may be unpleasant.
It's best to dispose of bacon in the regular trash rather than in a home composting system.
