1) Rain covers arent needed as there aren't any holes in the lid of our wormeriesOther products are sold with optional rain covers, moisture mats, lime mix and worm food.
2) Moisture mats arent needed, they are just a piece of hemp that is placed on the surface of the wormery - which the worms will eventually eat anyway. Just place damp newspaper on the surface, works just as well !
3) Lime Mix - changes the PH value of a wormery - if its gone acidic, the lime mix can change the wormery from acid to alkaline.
ground egg shells do the same job, as the shell is made from calcium carbonate.
We do not recommend using lime mix, because if too much is used you run the danger of changing the environment drastically for the worms, which they won't like.
An early indication of an acidic wormery is a profusion of little white worms called pot worms, a healthy dose of shredded cardboard / paper usually solves the problem
4) Worm Food - Our wormeries come with a small bag of worm food (250g approx), they are fed on this in our worm farms. Its a mix of cereals that helps fatten and increase the breeding rate - once the food is finished - you won't ever need it again, as you want the worms to eat your wastes not worm food
Yep - worms are outdoor creatures, and are tolerant of wet and coldif I use your executive value pack? Can I place it outside in the rain?
to the best our knowledge rats havn't been able to get in to the executive wormeryIs it rodent proof
The vat is included in the priceWhen I go to checkout, the VAT of #10 appears on the invoice, is this additional to pay, or is it already included in teh price. Your website is not clear?
