This is my first experience with raising worms. All is going wonderfully
well until recently a large amount of what appear to be white mites have
appeared all over everythng. Has anyone else experienced this and if
so,what am I supposed to do?

Google search "critters in the bin" for a great article by Kelly Slocum on
the different creatures that can inhabit your bin. It's the first link
you see. Great forums on worms can be found at Gardenweb.com and
wormdigest.org.

From what I've read, mites aren't usually a problem. Kelly says to cut
back on melon and fruit scraps if you've been feeding them. I've found
that "visitors" just kind of come and go in my bin.
