What am I?

How to Dispose of me?
- Optimal conditions are commercial composters with loads of good bacteria to gobble me up.
- These hungry and helpful microorganisms will munch up 70% of me in ± 45 days and take up to 4 months to finish me off.
- *This may take a little longer at home.
- Although creepy crawlies in the soil love me, turtles don’t.
- Please remember that I am not marine degradable, so please make sure I land up in a commercial compost heap and not the ocean.
