Worm Factory 360
If you're looking for a relatively quick and easy way to dispose of your kitchen, paper, and cardboard scraps without sending them to a landfill, consider worm composting.
Worms are super-efficient composters, and will turn food and paper scraps into valuable composted material in no time.
What kind of worm composting bin you use depends entirely on you; as long as the environment is moist, dark, and full of food, worms don't really care where they're at or what their home looks like (they don't even have eyes).
Worm Factory 360
The Worm Factory 360 is an easy to use worm bin designed to make the entire process as easy as possible, and is an attractive unit to us humans, who do have to look at it.
Worm Factory 360 Advantages
The Worm Factory 360 has several features that both speed up and simplify the worm composting process. It has a thermo siphon air flow design, allowing for proper ventilation. This increases the rate at which the worms create the finished compost product.
The Worm Factory 360 is basically odorless, making it a suitable for apartments, condos, kitchens, garages, patios, and more. For those with little or no outdoor space for a conventional compost pile, a worm bin is a great alternative.
It also uses a multi-tray design to make feeding the worms and separating them from the finished compost. It couldn't be easier; add a handful of worms and scraps to the bottom tray, and they'll get to work eating. As the bottom bin fills up, add another tray with moist bedding and food scraps. The worms will migrate up into the new bin to get at the new food once their supply in the bottom tray is finished. You can then harvest the finished compost from the bottom tray, clean it out, and the cycle continues.
The Worm Factory 360 comes with 4 trays, but is expandable up to 8 trays for those with large amounts of waste to compost.
This unit also has a spigot on the bottom of the unit, which allows for the moisture that filters through the trays to be easily drained. This 'liquid compost' makes a superb organic liquid fertilizer.
The Worm Factory 360 comes with everything needed to start the worm composting process. Everything, that is, except for the worms. They are not included and will need to be ordered separately. Other than that, everything is included. It comes with a starter supply of bedding material to make startup simple. There is an instructional DVD, as well as written instructions, with a step-by-step guide for starting and managing the Worm Factory 360. Also included is an accessory kit with tools to make managing the worms in the Worm Factory 360 easier.
The Worm Factory 360 is made in the U.S., and comes with a 20 year warranty.
