Worms: Tiger Worms are the best worms you can use in your wormery for worm composting. They're supplied in breathable pouches & sent by secure delivery already in soil to make sure they arrive in a healthy condition. Coir Moisture Mat: The Coir Mat is to be placed on the surface of the food waste. Adding the coir moisture mat keeps your compost warm & moist & will make it easier for the worms to find the surface & encourage them upwards to where the food waste is. The mat will eventually degrade & be eaten up by the worms themselves, leaving behind a nutrient-dense vermicompost. Composting with Worms Book: An interesting read from George Pilkington, a worm composting connoisseur with over 20 years experience. Coir Block: Approx 650 grams in weight. Coconut Coir is extracted from the husk on the outer shell of a coconut, because of its superior water holding capacity, excellent air space & drainage, coir is a useful soil amendment for potted plants, containers, gardens & as wormery bedding. Just gradually add water until the coir is damp to the touch. It can also be added dry & broken up to soak up extra moisture in wormeries, to help you produce the best vermicompost you can.
