Interesting. I also compost every scrap of kitchen waste. My workmates think I’m nuts for bringing home apple cores, etc. So be it.
I have a screened off area behind my fruit trees so I set up vermicomposting in 30 gallon fabric grow pots. I did a good amount of dig and drop also but the resident possum must have been watching...and digging up what I buried. He/she will occasionally get into the vermicompost bins and make a mess. What works now is that I put the raw kitchen waste into the sealed tumbler for a couple of weeks, then either into the worm bins or just dig and drop. I guess taking the edge off is enough to deter the critters- no more dug up compost.
