FEATURES & BENEFITS

​Prosumer / Homestead ProtaPod Composting System: 4 foot polyethylene tubs (bodies only).  These large pods have the bioconversion capacity of approx. 5 of the smaller BioPod Plus units and can accept approx. 20-25+ lbs per day. These updated units do NOT include the old metal stand and problematic drainage filter jars from our GEN I design.

If you have a source of food waste (raw or cooked), offal, coffee grounds or brewer's mash, you can quickly offset your purchases of store-bought feed by growing huge quantities of grubs for your chickens or fish. Self-reliance meets sustainability meets recycling meets insect farmer! 
These are similar in design to the old GEN I bodies, but with some enhancements, including drainage support improvements, a new top grub barrier lip and more robust crawl off ramps.  

These pods bodies are now made to order and available for DIY setups in limited quantities only. We can now nest up to 12 pods on a single pallet. Use matala, perforate poly plates or coir fiber mats with gravel underneath to promote continuous bottom drainage.  In order to maintain maximum flexibility with both imperial and metric plumbing fixtures, we no longer pre-drill the bottom drainage hole(s).  A comprehensive 30+ User's Guide & Operations E-Manual is available at no additional cost.

If you are ordering one or more of the larger pods, we now include a no-charge "Setup and Operational Support" conference call so that all of your questions and concerns are addressed.  All that we ask is that you read the manual ahead of the meeting.
