Organic waste can be reprocessed. When worms ingest decomposed waste matter, they leave behind compost that can be used to fertilize a garden.

Concerning worm composting, the following points should be noted:

• Compost piles need to usually be moist but not wet. Excessive water should be drained off.

• Aeration, or increasing air circulation, to the compost heap will boost the oxygen supply. Considering that oxygen is an element to decompose, this accelerates the decay of organic waste matter.

• The amount of carbon and nitrogen in the compost heap should be balanced. Having too a lot of either can throw it out of kilter. Adding grass trimmings to the compost heap will support it to balance.

• Composting helps to prevent pests and plant diseases. As it reduces or does away with the use of fertilizers, hazardous or toxic chemicals are avoided. Soil is rejuvenated expense-efficiently.
