You can choose the one that best suits your needs. Some of them are: red wigglers, night crawlers, black soldier flies, earthworms, and red wiggler. These worms are easy to find. You can buy them from pet stores or you can search online for suppliers.

There are different methods for making compost. You can make compost with your worms or you can use other materials like leaves, sawdust, paper and grass clippings. When you want to start composting you need to have some compost bins. You can get these from your local hardware store. It will cost you about $20 to $40. The size of your bin depends on how much compost you want to produce. If you are planning to make enough compost to sell it then you should get a larger bin.

The first thing that you need to do is place your compost bin in an area where it will be exposed to the sun. The ideal temperature is between 65°F and 70°F. This will help to kill off any bacteria or pathogens that might be present. After placing the bin in a sunny location you should add the ingredients. You can mix all the ingredients together. You can also use a fork to break up the material. If you don’t have a fork you can use your hands. Make sure that you keep the bin moist. Water can be added periodically to keep it moist.

It takes several months before you can see any results. You can add more ingredients if you feel that you need to. It’s important that you maintain the right balance of ingredients. Too much nitrogen will result in too much growth. This will not be good for your compost because it will have a bad odor. Too much carbon will cause the compost to become acidic. This will be bad for the environment.
