What to Feed Your Red Wiggler Worms?
|
|
|
In general, Red Wiggler Worms will consume anything that was once living material. This includes:
- Fruit, left over vegetable scraps and peelings;
- Coffee grounds, tea leaves and tea bags;
- Vacuum cleaner dust;
- Hair clippings (people and animals);
- Manures (well aged);
- Shredded paper such as newspaper and office paper (soak first); and
- Crushed egg shells.
The greater the variety of material used, the better the casting (compost) will be.
