Worms & Composting
Dear Jo
Would l need to add worms in a compost bin?

Dear Brad
If your compost bin doesn't have a base and is placed directly onto soil, you will not need to add worms - they will come to you! Worms will head straight for the bin to tuck in to the tasty treats. Soon it will be teeming with them.
If your bin is a sealed unit, it will use heat for the composting process, which means that worms are not required to break down the material.
I hope this is helpful. Please let me know if you need any further help. Happy composting!
Kindest Regards
Jo
