Worm food? What should I not feed to my worms!

by Minie
(Cape Town)

Good day Stephan,

I have collected my bins today, thank you very much!!!
Just a quick question:

Is there some foods that we should avoid feeding them, I know about pasta
and meat, but like ex onion, garlic, potato etc.
Is there some foods I need to concentrate more than others because it is
good for them??
And how often do I feed them?

Yikes, I have to do this on my own, because my husband works away and he is
the one with the knowledge.

Thank you
Minnie


Hello Minnie,

I am glad you got your worm farm.

The worms eat nearly anything that has ever been alive and is now dead. There are many false rumors floating around on the internet about the kinds of things worms feed on.

For a detailed list of worm foods and many other helpful articles please
have a look at my educational worm farming website

www.worm-composting-help.com

If you go have a look at the site map of this page you will find several
pages that deal with the subject of worm food.

If you have any additional questions you can fill in one of the interactive
forms that you can find at the bottom of most pages.

Hope all goes wel.

Kind regards and blessings.
