Compost Specialists
The type of worms we use for composting are called Eisenia Fetida. These worms are popularly used in permaculture systems. The worms like to eat organic kitchen waste like spoiled fruit and vegetables, and their poo is some of the best quality compost you can get because it is rich in beneficial bacteria which comes from their gizzard (stomach). They're also super fun to watch!
 
They like to live in a box type of environment which needs to be very moist because they breathe through their skin.
They need good aeration but not too much to dry out the bedding
The compost that comes with the worms contains a secret ingredient which will make your worms do very well
 
For those wanting to start their own worm bin, we suggest starting out with any box/container that you have. Just add a little organic waste, 'bedding material' like finished compost or grass cuttings, and worms. 1500 worms is usually enough to start a home vermicompost box.
