Air, heat, light, macro- and micro-organisms, and moisture help a compost pile to decompose. Composting responds to the break down of carbon- and nitrogen-rich organic materials into dark-colored, fresh-smelling, nutrient-rich organic material. Beneficial bacteria and fungi will play critical roles in generating the necessary energy and heat.
Sources for activators, additions, and jump-starts are ways that recycling helps compost. Compost is the dark-colored, fresh-smelling, nutrient-rich organic matter that the natural breakdown of carbon- and nitrogen-rich recyclables by air, macro- and micro-organisms, and moisture produces. Compostable recyclables serve as steady sources and supplies for activating, enriching, extending and supplementing home-made and store-bought compost to be used as soil amendments, fertilizers and mulches.

Then add a small pile of manure, or stale bread to act as a worm magnet. Finally moisten the compost heap with a spray horse.

Yes, worms play a vital role in breaking down organic material in compost piles. They consume and digest organic matter, breaking it down into nutrient-rich castings that enhance the compost's quality. Their activities help accelerate the decomposition process and improve the overall health of the compost pile.
This will depend on the temperature of the compost. Most worms will not survive freezing, however some may burrow into the compost or cocoon themselves and survive, some will even go into a form of hibernation.
