Our Wormeries work by harnessing the surface feeding nature of the hungry tiger worms contained within. This happens naturally as it's a trait of these composting worms to live near the surface rather than deep into the compost. However, by adding a moisture mat to your Wormery you make it easier for the worms to find the surface & encourage them upwards. They can also help prevent occasional fly infestations by adding another barrier to the outside world. Simply pop a damp mat on the surface of the food waste in your Wormery & leave it there. When you add new food waste, add it just underneath the mat. The mat, being made from Coir & being natural will eventually degrade & be eaten up itself by the worms, leaving behind a rich organic vermicompost.
