Wormeries are
great fun and
educational for kids and a fantastic
natural resource of compost for your
garden. The Wormcity Wormery 100 Litre has
four composting trays
and all the paraphernalia you need to keep your worms and your garden
happy. Fill your bottom tray with worms, throw in some organic waste
materials and watch the worms eat through the lot, leaving behind a
rich fertilizer for your greens.
Setting up your wormery
The
Wormcity Wormery 100 Litre comes with a solid base, a tray to collect
liquid (sump) and four removable composting trays that stack on top.
The trays are sealed off with an attractive lid in the shape of a
beehive. The sump tray has a tap, which allows you to easily
drain off liquid fertilizer to use
as food for your plants.

Happy worms
The worms you receive with the Wormcity Wormery 100 Litre are a mixture
of
Red / Tiger Worms (
Eisenia andrei / fetida) and
Dendrobaena Worms (
Eisenia hortensis).
They are surface worms, which means they move from the bottom of your
wormery up to the top in search of food; as they move upwards - tray by
tray - they leave behind a
nutrient-rich
compost that you can easily remove for use in your garden.
The trays are not too deep and have a
vast
surface area to ensure air flows in and around the trays easily,
so the worms survive well - this also makes sure there is
no compost smell.
The sump tray is designed with 'steps' so that if a worm falls
downwards instead of moving upwards, it won't drown in liquid, but can
climb out to a dry surface.
Available wormery colours
Dimensions of the wormery trays
- 43cm wide
- 43cm long
- 17cm deep
The Wormcity Wormery 100 Litre is made with
recycled protected plastic
and designed for the comfort of the worms it houses, but also the
convenience of its users. Throw all your kitchen waste, newspapers and
cardboard into your wormery and watch your worms get to work. Since
composting worms eat half their own body weight every day and multiply
at an incredible rate, they can be left to eat and eat whilst you reap
the rewards in compost.
