My worm bins seem to be doing good but are full of fruit flies. What should I do?
Breeze in Brothers
Red Wiggler castings are amazing, but is it really true that “This poop don’t stink”?
Seashore Shelly
I love shellfish, and other seafood. Can I feed my worms cooked shrimp shells?

12,000 per week!
In a month, how many worms will you have?
48,000 per month!
And 6 weeks later?

Wonder Worm-Bins!
All Wonder Worman Red Wiggler Bins are constructed here in Bend from FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) wood and stained with Timber Pro (an environmentally safe stain) to seal and protect them from our Central Oregon environment. These bins will support a pound of worms each and are designed as an outdoor composting solution, but can also be placed in your garage.

Enemies of the Worm Bin
Centipede
Predator!
Centipedes are fast moving predators that will kill small worms and should be removed. The only way to control centipedes is to carefully remove them by hand.
Millipede
Predator!
Often mistaken as a worm because of its long segmented brownish body. They mainly feed on decaying matter but are also known to feed on small insects, other arthropods, and worms.
Mole
Predator!
Outdoor vermicomposters beware! There’s no better delicacy to a mole than a Red Wiggler. Be sure your worm habitat is directly on the ground has a wood bottom or metal screening.
Red Mite
Parasite!
This bright red parasite will latch onto a Red Wiggler and suck the blood right out of her! It will also attach itself and suck fluid from the cocoons. This little guy is no bueno.
