How do I start an easy homemade(maybe worm) compost?
Right now I have a square cat litter plastic box that has a lid under our kitchen sink. I don’t put any meats or fats in it which I think are the basic rules right? I have a bunch of plastic brute trash cans with lids. would I be able to use this? Do I have to have holes? Should this stay inside or out side? I live in ohio so cooler weather is coming. If I get worms would they die in the cold? Any help would be appreciated.
You should start your compost heap outside. If you take a look at the site below, Tip No. 8 will give you easy instructions.
Well worth doing.

how do I take care of the stench from my worm bin?
I accidentally left my worm bin out in the sun during a few super hot days (90-100 F). I have the layered kind where the bin at the bottom collects liquids from the compost, but worms and dirt keep falling to the bottom from the upper layer, so the bottom bin holds mushy compost. Previously, the worms lived in the bottom layer without drowning, but the heat killed them all off when I left it in the sun (the worms in the other layers didn't die). Now the bottom layer (with the mushy compost) of the bin is giving off a horrible stench, and I can smell it from over ten feet away. Swarms of flies are gathered around the worm bin. How do I take care of this problem?
Are you able to emply the bottom layer? You are going to have to and hope you still have some live worms. If not,,,get some new ones from the bait shop, red wigglers. I raised redworms for composting and profit for a few years. Your bin should not be so wet that you have a reservoir for the excess liquid. I would dump this regularly on your plants or outside. If you have to,,,dump the whole thing and start over. I am not familiar with your kind of bin.

does anyone know whats better a worm bin or a compost pile?
by better i mean which works better and does anyone have plans for one that will work for at least 50 people
For that many people, a compost pile is probably a better situation. The local extension service should have lots of info on how to do it. Worm bins are great if you don't have room for a compost pile or it isn't allowed in your neighborhood. It is basically an indor compost pile and the worms do a great job of turning the vegetable scraps into soil quickly. Again, your local extension service should have plans on how to build one, but if you are talking that many people, it would be a BIG worm bin!

Is it OK to keep a worm/compost bin inside a shed?
We've had our worm bin outdoors in the shade in the past, but in the hot California summer all the worms died and it was a stinky mess. Well, we'd like to start one again, but now we're concerned that the worms might die in the frosts overnight. Is it OK to keep our worm bin in the shed in the backyard? I feel like there it will have a more regulated temperature.
It isn't a bad idea to move that in to avoid damage from heavy frosts, but the best thing is to have the worm bin in a partially shaded area that is also somewhat damp.
Worms are a tougher than most people give them credit for. If you have a species native to the area, the frosts most likely won't have an overly harsh impact on them.
