Hello, Can anyone tell me please how to deal with the flying insects that are hovering in clouds around my compost. I have two compost heaps in slatted boxes at the bottom of my garden. In the early morning or late afternoon it is dangerous for me to go to that part of the garden not covered from head to toe. These tiny creatures bite me and where they do I get very swollen and the area is heated and painful. I don't know how to deal with them and if this goes on then I may have to consider not composting my garden and kitchen waste anymore. I don't ever put on cooked waste so it's not 'cos of that I think. This happened for the first time last year and I looked up biting insects and came up with an idea that these might be what is known as no-see-ums. I'd very much appreciate your ideas.
