The UPS driver delivered my Worm Factory 360 around 5:30 this afternoon!

Geckos and Worm Containers
I’ve been searching the Internet trying to find out if anyone has problems with geckos getting into their worm containers. I think this is my last question before I place the order for my worm composter. There are lizards on my porch all the time, and I know they are always looking for a good [...]

Me with a Worm Composting Container
The last type of home composter that I would have ever guessed I would end up with as my first composter would have been a worm bin. Worms give me the ‘willies’. I can’t really explain why… maybe it has to do with their resemblance to small snakes… or maybe it has to [...]

Kitchen Composting Containers
Since I have temporarily put buying the Naturemill automatic composter on hold, I’m going to start looking at kitchen composting containers.
