I have had a wormery at home for a few monthes. It is great but it has a big draw back. It grows Vinegar Flies by the score. I am not sure how these tiny flies contribute to the big picture but there loads of them. I keep the wormery in the back garden but still a few flies make it into the house.
One of the Plot holders, Martyn, was enthusing about a wormery during the summer so I think I am going to convert one the the compo bins into a wormery. The wormery needs to be shallow but with a large surface area. Imagine a big deep tray. I will need a insulated lid to keep the worst of the frost out. I figure I will use the area under the wormery as a compo heap and hopefully this will give some heat to the underside of the wormery. I just need a little bit of pond liner and I'm good to go.
