    If no 1/2 way rotten kitchen scraps are added when you first add your worms, you will def need to moist the composted mulch. Worms don’t have teeth to chew on compost or grass. Need to place a screen at the bottom of the bin. Need NOT to expose to sun or worms will die. Need a shorter bin for when you need to turn the pile if needed.

    I keep my bins in an area that is always shaded off of my deck outdoors. Texas summers are often in excess of 100 degrees yet the bedding feels cool, because it is. Decomposition produces some heat in the winter and the moisture plus good airflow works like a swamp cooler in the summer. However, I haven’t really gone through a winter yet, nor even a full summer. Time will tell.

    55-80 temp, but optimal is between 70-80 but at 90 they’ll cook. Best composting worms are Red Wrigglers, and those are good bait worms too, just smaller than the Nightcrawlers.
