Why does your worm farm smell?
If your worm farm smells, it is a sign that it is too wet, or that you are giving the worms too much food. Make sure it is draining properly. There should be holes in the bottom allowing the worm urine and other liquid to drain into a tray. If the smell is from rotting food, remove it and give the worms less to eat. It is a good tip every time you feed them to put the food in a different spot, gradually moving round the feeding tray. Then you can see if they ate all the previous food, and judge the size of their next portion. Read the question below: What food should you put in a worm farm?

What do worms produce in a worm farm?
In a worm farm, worms eat the food and kitchen scraps that would otherwise go to landfill. They produce "castings", or worm poo, which is an excellent plant food for your garden. Their urine also drains off at the bottom and can be diluted with 10 parts of water for a terrific plant fertilizer. The castings and urine have no smell.
How much newspaper and compost do you put in a worm farm?
If you have a small worm farm made out of crates, then you can put a thick wet newspaper at the bottom of the worms' bedding box. The worms will eventually eat this. You can use torn strips of wet newspaper (squeeze most of the water out) as part of their bedding, if you can't find well rotted compost or manure. You can use wet newspaper as food, or as a cover over the top of the food to keep out the light. When the worms start eating the newspaper cover, you know they want some more food.
How can you measure the effects of a worm farm?
The main point of a worm farm is to divert food scraps away from landfill, where they decompose in anaerobic conditions (that is, without any air), and so produce methane which is a gas about 20 times more harmful to global warming than carbon dioxide. You can measure the effects by the amount of food waste you still throw away compared to the amount your worms eat. A worm will eat its own body weight in one day, so at the start, with 1000 worms, you can only feed about quarter of a pound (125 grams) of food scraps per day. Later, if your worm farm increases to 20,000 worms, you can feed much more. And a side effect of your worm farm is, of course, the worm castings and urine, which make excellent plant food for your garden.
