Compost worms are prolific breeders and you don't have to start with thousands of worms if you want to recycle your kitchen waste in a worm bin. If you would start with just 2 mature worms and you would house them in ideal conditions in your worm bin they could multiply to a herd of more than 10000 worms within a year. This shows you the enormous recycling potential that worm composting has to offer. 10 thousand compost worms can convert more than 400 kg / 880 lbs of organic materials into natural plant food and soil conditioner.

It is quite simple to start a profitable business with worms from home with a really tiny investment.
