All about our worm compost bin
Rest assured, vermicompost doesn't release unpleasant odors. It even smells like undergrowth when properly balanced! When your vermicompost is delivered, you'll have access to the vermicomposting masterclass, a video format for learning how to compost like a pro, without causing a nuisance. To find out more, you can also consult our ultimate guide to vermicomposting.
Our vermicomposter is modular with several levels. Once the first stage is full, take a few worms to start a new stage and let the filled stage finish decomposing. This allows you to rotate the stages. Our worm composters are also perforated, allowing the worms to move around and aerate your compost.
As for worms, don't panic! Leave them a good layer of food before you leave, and they'll get used to it for several weeks, regulating their population. When you return, you'll be able to harvest fresh compost! If you need to, you can always order new compost worms from our store.
The secret of compost is the balance between wet matter (peelings, coffee grounds...) and dry matter (cardboard, paper...). We often forget that cardboard is very important: it aerates the vermicompost, regulates humidity and makes a great bedding for the worms: that's where they reproduce. For better digestion of bio-waste, cut it into small pieces. Vermicompost is more efficient than compost, but also more sensitive. Avoid adding animal matter (milk, meat), fats (oil), citrus fruits and Alliaceae (garlic, onions, leeks, chives, etc.), which have vermifuge properties. To find out more, read our article on what you can and can't put in a worm compost bin.
