I've got EF's in the Worm Factory and they are doing great - 6 months in. I keep it in the basement and wouldn't hesitate to keep it in the kitchen, if I didn't have the basement. If properly balanced, it doesn't smell at all. I ordered the Euros based on an experiement that Bentley just posted about on his site about throwing some seeds on top of one of his tray bins. I have a couple of long trough-like hard plastic planting boxes that I wasn't using and decided to give it a try too. Bentley has a free shipping deal going on for Euros at his site so I ordered some. I don't plan to mix the worms. Since these are new bins I won't be able to do the planting part for a couple of months but it seems like a good idea! I really like my Worm Factory and hope you will like yours!

Are you happy with your choice of worm bin? I've seen so many different kinds, I'm not sure what to start with. I'd love to get a direct email for you, mine is zenroze@gmail.com Feel free to get in touch. Thanks again, Rose

I had a problem with little black gnat like flies for a couple of weeks but they are under control now too. I brought a bin in from outside for the winter and believe they came in with it but don't know for sure. I layed a layer of newspaper on top inside the bin and a fly strip on it and that seemed to stop them.

I've only had my worms since mid September so I'm not sure about the heat, but I have them in an area that is almost always shaded so the bedding never got very warm. I guess I'll see. I have Red Wigglers and they are the only ones to use for vermicomposting. They are hardy and reproduce very quickly.

How many pounds of garbage do your worms recycle each week?: Worm will arrive next week so I don't know
