A few months ago i was bought one of those large dalek type compostings bins i thought great i'll use it as a wormery, since then i have put in some of my old compost plus food scraps from the kitchen (minus any meat) and it all seems to be breaking down fine.
i have introduced probably somewhere in the region of 400 worms, the only thing that is bothering me is that there is no base on it and the worms would be free to bugger of if they please.
I'm thinking about digging it all out and starting again but this time but some plastic sheeting with drainage holes in but dont know if im worrying unneccesarily i know my last compost heap which was in the same place minus the bin used to attract worms from the surrounding area, any wormery exeprts have any advice before i make my self a fair amount of work?
