Ancient forest comes with bugs?

Ok guys so I had the same bag of af compost for a few weeks. A little over a week ago I used most of it to amend used soil. Today when I was turning the soil. I saw a some lil redish orange predator mites doing their thing. Ever since I started using af compost in teas and top dress, slowly but surely all gnats were gone. As a top.dress my soil stays wet longer too. Around 3 days extra. AF compost kicked my home mades composts ass. I even mixed in some AF in my own compost bin. AF makes a good compost tea too.
What do you think of using AF as 100% of the compost for ROLS or TLO mixes? (vs EWC or home made hot compost)

I've never used it solely on its own for the organic matter content, but it would definitely work. that shit is black and well broken down. I was mixing it half and half with EWC before I started making my own compost. It definitely does the job.
