Keep the lid secure, maintain bedding moisture similar to a wrung-out sponge, and preserve airflow so the system remains healthy and odor-free.
End of Life
- Rehome live worms to another composting system or local vermicomposting program; never release them into natural habitats. Reuse intact trays and accessories whenever possible, and recycle the ABS plastic components only through a local program that accepts them.
