Ooooh, the add on bins! I need one. Do they not get smushed in the bottom? And what if they leave other unprocessed scraps in the bottom? Do you sift those out or just use them with the castings?
@@awakeningcreatives yay! I can bring one with me when I come to your place if you like :). They don’t get smushed. If you do have any larger, unprocessed bits still in the bottom bin, you can just pull them out and add them to the new bin. Or you can certainly sift if you like more fine castings, then dump all the remaining chunky bits into the new bin.
My problem is my property has ants. I spent hundreds of dollars on poisons to eradicate the ants but they continue to pop up. Ants eat my worms. What can I do?
@@vincentmiceli2554 yikes. Fortunately I haven’t had to deal with ants like that. The first thing that comes to mind is either keeping your bin on the wetter side or regularly sprinkling the top with diatomaceous earth.
A ready-to-go bin is a great idea for beginners.

Nice. I have a few cocoon nurseries and 4 Vermibags myself. I have been worming for almost 6 years . I have 3 outdoor worm bins , big ones too .
@@Dee.C that’s fantastic! Keep it up! I’m looking forward to the time when I have some land and more space for more worms lol

I have a hard time keeping it dry enough without overwhelming it with cardboard or paper. Is there something else I can add to dry it up a bit?
