The material in the top of my wormery has gone quite soggy. The area beneath
(where the worms "live") is quite damp - but not too wet.

I only put vegetable matter in the wormery.

Is there something I can mix in with the rotting veg to absorb the moisture?


Well, dry stuff; obviously.



As you say: "obviously". What dry stuff do you suggest?


The last time I had to do this I think I used a few copies of our
annual report - shredded of course; can't have the wormies reading it
and finding out Afternoon Tea is on Thursdays, they'll be making a run
for the kitchen next.
