My Compost Bin outside has a lot of flies around and in it, what am I doing wrong?

I am new to composting so the compost pile is only a month old. I haven’t added worms to it, would that help? It is a real compost bin, I bought it from the city I live in, it has a lot of vents on the side that can’t be closed. I have only been adding fruit and vegetables to it.

What you have built is a fly magnet, and worms don’t do good in wet Garbage, they will leave and find some Soil that is moist but clean.
Probably the ground below your composter.
add leaves, and grass clipping, and preferably some Chicken, steer or rabbit manure, the manure causes in to heat better and compost faster.
This article should help.

Sun-Mar Mobile Composting Toilet: S $1467.75 Assembled H x W x D: 30 x 20 x 23” Manufacturer’s Warranty: 5 years on the fiberglass tank and 3 years parts replacement on all other parts The Sun-Mar Mobile is designed for boats and RVs. The mobile is marinized to accommodate violent motion, with mounting brackets, a finishing drawer that is gasketed in, and a fold up footrest which can be easily removed to access the finishing drawer. With a width of only 19 1/2 inches and depth of 23 inches this medium capacity self contained electric composting toilet occupies only slightly more floor space than a toilet seat. All Sun-Mar composting toilets incorporate a patented Bio-drum™ which ensures fast and odourless decomposition. Saves thousands of gallons of water, while recycling waste into safe useable soil. The unit is shipped fully assembled. Seasonal capacity: 3 adults or families of 4. Residential use: 1 adult or family of 2 *Uses no water *Recycles waste into fertilizing soil. *No Odor *US Coast Guard Certified *Certified & Listed by NSF *5 years on the fiberglass tank and 3 years parts replacement on all other parts No pump-outs! Recycling Brings Freedom. The original composting toilet for Mobile and Marine applications, no muss and no fuss, no changing containers, no pouring out urine. Self-contained and with a little maintenance works like a charm! Composting Capacity 1 Residential 3-4 Weekend & Vacation For fore and aft and RV installation – AC only on heater (12 volt fan may be used on its own if desired). The Sun-Mar Mobile was the first composting toilet specifically designed to recycle waste on boats and recreational vehicles. Less pump-outs! No more chemical toilets! Recycling brings freedom, with the ODOR-FREE operation of a Sun-Mar. The Design of the Sun-Mar Mobile Although the Sun-Mar Mobile uses Sun-Mar’s tried and true three-chamber system, ”marinizing” the unit led to some interesting adaptations. The need to be able to handle violent motion meant that the finishing drawer had to be gasketed so that no liquid could escape from the evaporating chamber. The air intakes face the same problem. These have to be located higher up and the air ducted down to the evaporating chamber. At the same time, a special drum locker ensures that the composting drum is held upright under all sea or road conditions. Space constraints mean that a fold-away foot rest is needed on the unit. This footrest has spring loaded legs, and a safety release mechanism to enable it to be removed periodically when access to the finishing drawer is required. To assist installation, strong mounting brackets are mounted at the base and rear of the unit. Electrically, the Sun-Mar Mobile units are quite different from other units because of the unique situation on many boats and RV’s. A 4.0 Watt 12 Volt fan is installed in a fan box within the vent stack. This fan, (which is on its own circuit) is designed to operate continuously while the u
