Are you using the right bag?
In order to prevent materials from sticking, you may line your green catcher with a paper bag or compostable bag. This is entirely optional. However, if you wish to line your green catcher with a bag, it must be a paper or certified compostable bag. You can also use newspaper to line your green catcher.
Certified compostable bags can be purchased at most grocery or home hardware stores. Quantity and availability of bags may vary by store.Â
