oh that's good. I wouldn't bother letting them "rest", though, I threw scraps in mine straight away.
My compost bin is quite small, probably similar in size to your plastic bin. In the summer I have it in the shade amongst the large potted plants and put one on top of it to hopefully keep the temperature down somewhat.
Good luck with your new friends!
edit: I was just reading the information sheet I received when I got the compost. They apparently really like sweet snaks like kiwis, apples, and melons, so why don't you get them started on some sweet fruits?
