The castings are later removed, manually or mechanically. A thermostatic controlled ventilation system maintains an optimal operating temperature. In concert with the vermi-organic digester a processing apparatus is required for chopping and mixing the organics. The resulting organic mixture is then expelled automatically into the vermi-organic digester. Any biodegradables may be composted in the Vermitech System.
Oils impede aeration.
Meats and fish from table scrapings may be used.
