Description
Red wigglers (Eisenia fetida) are the world’s most common composting worm. They are known for their ability to turn kitchen scraps and other green waste into a rich, dark soil that smells like earth and feels like magic. Made of almost pure worm castings, vermicompost is a sort of super compost that is not only rich in nutrients but also loaded with the microorganisms that create and maintain healthy soil.
Some benefits of using red wigglers for composting kitchen scraps include:
– Provides nutrients to the soil
– Increases the soil’s ability to hold nutrients in a plant-available form
– Improves the soil structure
– Improves the aeration and internal drainage of heavy clay soils
– Increases the water holding ability of sandy soils
– Provides numerous beneficial bacteria
Red wigglers are also low-maintenance housemates that don’t need to be fed every day, make no noise, and their bins only need to be cleaned every three to six months. Composting with worms isn’t just good for plants, it’s also good for the planet as it keeps food waste and other organic material out of our trash and reduces use of landfills. So, using red wigglers for composting kitchen scraps is not only beneficial for your garden but also for the environment.
