Worm composting is a process that uses red earthworms, also commonly called redworms, to consume organic waste, producing castings (an odor-free compost product for use as mulch), soil conditioner, and topsoil additive. Naturally occurring organisms, such as bacteria and millipedes, also assist in the aerobic degradation of the organic material. Commercially available worm composting bins make it fairly simple to do your own vermicomposting indoors.

Compost Materials: Can-O-Worms
It is not recommended that you use fruit or citrus in your Can-O-Worms, as the peels tend to last longer and develop an odor.

If you are allergic to molds and mildew, you should probably keep your Can-O-Worms outside. Molds occur naturally in compost bins and aid in composting. Red wigglers are temperature sensitive...

Redworms tolerate a wide range of environmental conditions, which make them ideal for composting. Our redworms, Eisenia fetida are capable of consuming up to half of their own weight daily in organic waste. The finely ground digested matter is passed out of the worm's body in the form of rich, nutritious casts. The end result, referred to as worm castings make a great organic soil amendment. During the vermicomposting process, the redworms continually tunnel in and feed on your food scraps, all...

Master gardeners agree that compost made by worms is the most beneficial for your garden and house plants. The Worm Factory is an upward migrating composting worm bin system that uses worms to turn your kitchen scraps and junk mail into nutrient rich compost.

A: No, baby earthworms are not white, but clear to opaque, before developing a reddish color. They are just visible at this stage. The 'white worm' you are noticing is a type of worm called entrachyadids. They will not hurt compost worms but they do indicate acidic conditions, which can be overcome by the regular addition of a handful of lime. By placing a piece of moist bread in your Can-O-Worms, you can also lure the white worms to a small area for easy removal. It is important to note that many...

Shovel the compost into one end (there is a lip built into it to insure that nothing falls back out), then turn the drum slowly by hand. The finished material falls through the screen and into the catcher, while the bigger chunks fall from the bottom end and into the waiting bucket. The bigger chunks can then be thrown back into the compost pile.
