Dear My-Hoa Vo,


The compost is probably too wet.  Put a lid on to make sure the rain doesn’t get in.  Alternatively there may be too many kitchen scraps or very thick layers of grass clippings.  If so add newspaper or even garden lime.  If it has become a smelly sludge, add twigs to help create air pockets.  Hope this solves your problem.
