You make it sound so simple... IT"S NOT! There are quite a number of things you would consider kitchen scraps that worms wont eat. If it gets too wet they die. If it gets too dry they die. If the pH gets out of balance they die. Bugs get in, mold grows, Kitchen scraps must be chopped up small and covered. If you put too much in the scraps start to rot and the worms die. Worm bins are great, but they are not simple. Closing the discussion by charging for it will cut you off from people who have already worked through the learning curve.

It is simple, if a few rules are followed. We explain these things in our eBook and discussion group. Our goal is to simplify the process for non-technical homeowners to enjoy, not make it a chore. We don't have a learning curve, we have been doing this for years, we teach others, and charge a nominal fee for the materials, so that we can continue to teach.

I misunderstood what you were doing. Thought it was an experiment. Good luck. We have had great results pairing worms with rabbits. I explained it once on my blog. If you keep rabbits, either as pets or as a food source, this is a great way to deal with the waste.
