Gary also carries worm bins, composting and gardening supplies. You'll need to order them by the pound. You can sometimes find worms in rich moist soil around your house or compost pile, but be sure to get redworms. Provide the worms with food, adequate moisture and air. Check the bin while you are adding food to see that the bedding has not become too matted, and that it is not drying out.
Daily care is unnecessary.
You may feed your worms once a day or once a week - whatever fits best into your schedule. Bury the food by creating a pocket in the bedding and covering it. It will take about six weeks before you see noticeable changes in your bin. Once the newspaper has been replaced by castings, the concentration of castings will begin to become toxic to the worms. This process generally takes 2-4 months.
