Add compost directly to your garden or mix some with potting soil. Sprinkle some on the soil of house plants. Give some to a friend. Give extra worms away so friends may start composting. In the warmer months, release the worms in your backyard composter or garden, or take them fishing.
Bedding Never let the bedding dry out, or become too wet.
This will keep your bin trouble-free and your worms happy. Temperature Avoid extremes. Imagine the bin is separated into six sections and bury food starting with section one, then two, three and so on. When you get to the last section, return to the first and start again. Castings are tiny dark brown droppings with a sweet, rich, earthy smell.
