How It Works:
1)
You start with just one tray of worms, feeding them handfuls of food
scraps (fruit and vegetable peelings, EGGSshells, and coffee grinds,
mostly - meat and dairy are not allowed) and topping each deposit with
shredded paper or dried leaves (which keep the compost from smelling or
attracting fruit flies and eventually get eaten by the worms as well).
2)
Then, once the tray is filled, you add another one on top, containing a
starter pile of more scraps. The worms, seeking new food, migrate
upward through the holes in the bottom of the new tray and leave you
with a bottom tray full of beautiful compost. When the second tray is
full, you add another one on top, and so on until you have a short tower
of compost-filled trays, a self-contained worm industrial complex.
What Is Worm Composting
Worm
composting is using worms to recycle food scraps and other organic
material into a valuable soil amendment called vermicompost, or worm
compost. Worms eat food scraps, which become compost as they pass
through the worm's body. Compost exits the worm through its' tail end.
This compost can then be used to grow plants. To understand why
vermicompost is good for plants, remember that the worms are eating
nutrient-rich fruit and vegetable scraps, and turning them into
nutrient-rich compost.
Materials To Use & Avoid:
★ Use raw
fruit and vegetable scraps. Stay away from meats, oils and dairy
products, which are more complex materials than fruits and vegetables.
Thus, they take longer to break down and can attract pests. Cooked foods
are often oily or buttery, which can also attract pests.
★ Avoid orange rinds and other citrus fruits, which
are too acidic, and can attract fruit flies. Try to use a variety of
materials. We have found the more vegetable matter, the better the worm
bin. Stay away from onions and broccoli which tend to have a strong
odor.
