A
wormery is well worth considering.


In my experience a dalek type bin that doesn't heat up too much will
often contain thousands of worms who find their own way in (if the bin
is installed on earth).




But - those are common or garden earth worms (no surprise there) -
which are not the best for wormeries.

The recommended ones are Dendrobaena which are supposed to be the best
- also for fishing.

I bought mine from local fishing shop.
