Comments about Rodent Screen:
This is a good addition to the Pyramid composter. I would have given it 5 stars except that it is a bit too small for a snug fit and I had to use duct tape to keep it in place.
Pros
- Does the Job
- Easy Assembly
Cons
- Doesn't fit well
Best Uses
- Kitchen Scraps
- Leaves & Brush
Comments about Rodent Screen:
The rodent screen does the job it's intended to do, but the fit isn't the best. I laid it on the ground and sat the composter on top of it making the composter a bit wobbly. I think there must be a way to make this so it fits quite well. Either way, it works and wasn't too expensive. I still recommend it to keep the bottom dwelling critters out of the compost!

Comments about Rodent Screen:
Having read the past reviews--I thought "Oh, they just have to be installing it incorrectly." But no, I received mine and the fit is downright strange. Technically, it does cover the open space in the bottom of the composter, but it does not appear to be well designed for that purpose. It just kind of sits in the space--not snug, not tight, not well.
The screen is well made and uses great materials--but the basic fit of it leads to some pause.
I only recommend because it is probably better and more effective than trying to create one on your own. But this is far form a ringing endorsement.
Pros
- Very solid
Cons
- Could be a bit larger
- Slightly small
Best Uses
- Keeping out rodents
Comments about Rodent Screen:
Nice and sturdy/solid. However, the fit is rather loose. Could be a smidge bigger. Thought [$] was a bit much for just a screen, even though it is a heavy solid item.

It's a quality product - small mesh, powder-coated paint, nice and sturdy. It fits perfectly inside my pyramid compost bin. And I'm glad I won't have to worry about 'critters' in my compost when I open the lid!
