What are its unique benefits? The worms do the work for you.
a. TURN: Like tiny ploughs, they work their way throughout the material.
b. AERATE: They add oxygen for all the beneficial microorganisms.
c. MIX: All kinds of organisms and nutrients throughout the pile adding lots of small aggregates.
d. SCREEN: They eat the bedding materials and the feed, ultimately turning it into a rich soil product.
e. PATHOGEN CONTROL: They ingest and render useless the “bad guys”.
f. FAST: They can eat one-half of their weight per day. They can process 100lb food scraps per day and 75-80 lbs. of castings per day.
