Hi Brian -Over the years, I have had great success with my compost bin and ordinary worms which have access to the garden. Someone gave me a 4 tiered plastic worm farm and insisted on tiger worms which I purchased from Bunnings. The worms have died. The set up seemed a bit claustrophobic to me, so am considering keeping the lid off, but the covering moist. Never failed with worms before! I also give them the right amount of food. Help!
Hi Pam,
It’s quite common to have problems with composting worms, don;t feel bad.
Yes, I agree, the little plastic farms make it even harder.
You’ll have to do a little reading, or if you’re in Brisbane, I’m doing workshops. Go back to basics, see what you may have missed understanding.
For a free book, see my FAQ guide here:
If you like that and want more info like it, my Big Book Of Answers is the go – youll see it in the left column here on the site, or in the Worm Info Store:

Thanks for asking your question – and good luck
