We started the first bucket with shredded white paper which filled up quickly! Then we switched to Peat Moss which was nice, absorbed the odors, but we finally switched to sawdust and love it. Fortunately our source is free, abundant and works better then PM. The PM had a bit of problems controlling the odor when the bucket was almost full. But surely a pleasant color (black/dark brown) and odor (organic). SD seems more absorbent and has a "sponge" effect that is when it comes to liquid. Are you still using the shavings or courser Saw dust? Are you still composting? We started on to about a month ago. We started the first bucket with shredded white paper which filled up quickly!
