Default Worm Composting

Three reasons:

1) If they're not in the fridge, their "home", whatever it may be
(box, plant tray) will be exposed to house heat, which means drying.
You *KNOW* somebody's gonna forget to keep the worm bedding damp. Not
wet. Damp.

2) Because *all* sources of worm-raising information suggest keeping
them cool.

3) Stick your hand 6" down into the outdoor soil in April. It's pretty
cold, and the worms are perfectly happy.



Aren't they also dormant when they are cool? How much composting gets done
when the worms aren't doing anything?
