Red worms are the most satisfactory to use in home vermicomposting systems.
They process large amounts of organic material in their natural habitats of manure, compost piles, or decaying leaves. They reproduce quickly and in confinement. Plate scrapings, spoiled food from the refrigerator, coffee grounds, tea leaves or egg shells are waste that you may want to feed your worms. Burial of meat is not recommended because decaying meat can produce offensive odors. Mice and rats are more likely to be attracted to worm bins containing meat.
