Worms in Collector Tray

Houzz-bruger-ID-53840225

Every day a dozen or so worms escape down into the collector tray, where they seem to bunch up in the corners in the puddles of drippings. I have tried to prevent this with a lining of weed stop fabric, but still a few make it down into the collector tray. Solutions please?

    Hi There! Thanks for reaching out - I think I may have a few answers!


    The reason why the worms head down to the collector tray is because their home soil in the working tray is a little off and by that I mean: too acidic or too wet.


    Solution:

    Lime Powder is great for neutralizing the soil - the next time you add food, sprinkle this over and mix it in - this will aerate the soil as well. It's going to bring the pH back to a level where the worms are happy.


    The other reason why they may be escaping is because it's too wet, if the soil is very sloppy try adding some sticks/ garden soil as well as some harder foods that take more time to break down: Corn cobs, broccoli etc


    Hope this helps,


    Hannah
