     Why Worms

                               Worms have long been known to provide the soil with essential enzymes and nutrients. They do this by consuming decaying organic matter and leaving behind there castings or black gold as it is called in the industry There are thousands of species of worms, but most are recognized in one of three categories

                               1 The Euro night crawler  

                               2 The Earthworm                             

                               3 The Red worm

                              All of these worms are used for fishing bait with the nightcrawler and earthworms being the most popular because of  their size.

                              The story changes when it comes to composting. The red worm although being the smallest is by far the most voracious eater of the three. Under certain condtions it has been reported that a red worm can consume its body weight daily. In the real world  they consume half their body weight daily.. A good rule of thumb is 1000 redworms a pound, therefore we can expect 4lbs of redworms to consume 14lbs. of waste per week.( 2 pounds a day x 7 days0  When used in a home composting system, a typical family could expect to divert 728 lbs of organic waste from the landfills every year!  This is just from a 2'x2' bin. It takes about  1 sq. ft, to accommodate 1000 worms. By using a 2'x 2' bin you expect  to divert over 1400 lbs. of waste each year.
