* Worms eat your organic garbage, preventing it going to landfill where it would produce the greenhouse gas methane as it decomposes, and saving cost of garbage disposal. * Worms convert your food scraps into valuable worm manure, nature's favorite plant food, and saving cost of buying chemical fertilizer. * Worms breed quickly and can even be sold, along with their compost, for extra income.

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?


Where is a safe place to put a worm farm?

Worms don't like it too hot or too cold, and they don't like direct light, so they should be out of the sun. They prefer 65 to 77 degrees Fahrenheit (18 - 25 degrees Celsius). They can be kept in a garden shed, or on a balcony or veranda, or even inside the house. A well managed worm farm has no smell. There should be a lid on the top to discourage pests, rats, cats, dogs or others. If ants come into your worm farm it's not really a problem but it's a sign that your farm is too dry. A little more moisture will drive them away.
