No chickens, but I gather this is good news... I initially started a compost bin with an old rubbermaid black plastic trash can with a lid, I drilled holes in rows down the sides and started throwing coffee grounds and filters, used tea bags, shredded newspaper, pulped cardboard, all vegetable kitchen scraps then a few months later I saw those and now I can actually just hear them in the can. I'm guessing they won't eat the paper even if soiled with food?

Temps dropped down to high 60's at night here (central cal) and high 90's in the day so winter is here for us. I went to turn the compost a bit and there's all these things in there once I started turning it, idk if they are grubs or meal worms or ? they are about a 1/2 inch to 3/4 inch long? thanks for any help.
