Will all the worms die if the wormery is left outdoors in an environment that experiences freezing weather?
During winter, it's essential to place the wormery in a location where freezing is avoided. While light frost and ice pose minimal issues, severe freezing can harm the worms. Alternatively, wormeries can be positioned indoors, such as in a garage or shed, offering several advantages including stable temperatures.
Also keep your wormery out of direct sunlight as that can kill them ( as I found out a couple of years ago 🤦♂️🤦♂️) 👍👍
