3 Steps to Building a Worm Farm at Home - Wormery Compost Made Easy
<b>What We'll Need For Building A Worm Farm At Home</b>
Building a worm farm at home can be accomplished in just 3 easy steps. First we need to get the materials.
You will need a container to house the environment, which will be known as our compost bin. It doesn't have to be any more than a plastic tub to work as a wormery compost. The bin will need to be about 1 foot tall. The surface area of the lid should be about 4 feet by 5 feet, assuming you will be adding about 20 pounds of waste each week.
The second material we will need is the bedding for the wormery worms to live in. This can be made out of shredded paper or cardboard or it could even come from outside in the form of dead leaves and grass. Here is a very important tip for your wormery compost - the bedding must be moist when you put it in the compost bin! Wormery worms require a moist environment to be able to move about in.
The final thing we need for buillding a worm farm at home are, of course, the worms! I suggest red wigglers, but there are several species of worms that get the job done. The average household wormery compost requires about 2 pounds of worms.
<b>Building A Worm Farm At Home - 3 Steps And You're Done</b>
Step one to building a worm farm at home is to prepare the compost bin. Depending on the size of the container you got, you will need to drill 7-11 holes in the bottom to allow for water drainage and aeration to keep the air fresh and odors down.
Once the compost bin is prepared, we are ready to add our bedding. Remember, the most important thing to building a worm farm at home is to make sure your bedding is moist when you put it in the bin! You should fill the compost bin to about 75% full.
The last step to building a worm farm at home is to find a suitable location for your wormery compost. Worms survive best in moderate temperatures (40-80 F). You can keep your compost bin indoors or out. If you do not live in a very temperate zone, you should carry your wormery compost inside during colder months. If you leave your compost outside, be sure to keep the lid on the bin.

Composting Kitchen Scraps in a Worm Bin Revealed
Thank you for reading Compost Worm, we hope it gives you more information about Compost Worm.
Hi Linda, I think your best bet is probably to freeze the food scraps if you need to keep them more than a few days. If you just let them sit in a bucket, they will spoil and get really nasty. That apparently will produce an acidic environment that is not good for worms.
When you first get your compost worms set up, feed them very sparingly for the first couple of weeks. Overfeeding is probably the #1 cause of worm bin failure.
Once your compost worm bin is going, storing the food scraps in a closed container on your kitchen counter for a couple days at a time is fine. Many people find that an old cooking pot with a lid works very well — something that's large enough to conveniently hold your scraps, and easy to open with one hand. You want to make it as easy as possible to add food scraps as you're cooking or cleaning up.
