In general, setting up and managing a worm bin requires very little effort. But the volume of vermicompost you can produce will be significantly less than what you can make using traditional composting methods. You also need to cater to the specialized needs of your worms, such as giving them the right amount of moisture and a well-balanced diet, to keep them productive and healthy. Monitoring the process can be time-consuming, and quality can suffer if you don’t manage your worm bin correctly.
