Tumble dryer fluff
Hi, I seen it said that you can feed your wormery with the fluff from the filter off the tumble dryer, is it not so that this fluff will have some detergent/conditioner in it and be detrimental to the worms?

Re: All my worms have gone!!
If you do restart put an old tee shirt or cardboard, I used an old clean tea towel, covering the mesh in the tray this helps stop worms getting down into the sump, I had a few that managed to get in to the sump but they found their way back up to the tray,As Willy says having the bedding just the ri...

Re: All my worms have gone!!
Ok are there or were there any signs of dead worms on the garage floor?Did you put some form of barrier, old tee shirt or cardboard over the mesh of the first tray above the sump, and did you leave the sump tap open or closed?

Re: Ground bird seed
Sounds a good idea will look at giving it a try, as for knicker elastic being single now I don't really know all the haberdashery shops are long gone could look on ebay?

Re: All my worms have gone!!
Maybe a daft question but have you checked the sump? I like others found quite a few in there during the first week.

Re: Ground bird seed
I too have bought a BBQ cover and found it worked ok but a bit fiddly to fit where I have moved my bin too, in the wheelie bin store along side my wheelie bin, at the moment I have moved it into my spare bed room as the cold wet spell we are having right now has dropped the temp down to 60 deg F. I...

Re: Ground bird seed
Lol Hilton it isn't but the mods I have done are my attempts to try and take out the guess work with the temp and humidity, they do seem to be settling down so know with being in a first floor flat will look at some where indoors for it to over winter I can't really rely on just being able to wrap...

I have inst...
