Frozen apple & overripe mango go head to head in my 4000+ red wiggler & blue compost worm tower as they turn these food scraps into natural fertilizer & soil amendments for my garden in the form of food scraps!!
It seemed like every worm in this bin was attacking the mango & apple halves as I lifted them out of the bedding, uncovering hundreds of red wiggler and blue worms feasting on the fruit! After reseting the feeding zone & placing what was left of the mango & apple halves, I placed the worm balls I found on the top & sped up the video for a fun worm time lapse! I hope you enjoy!
Epigeic worms or composting worms are fascinating natural composters & fertilizers that are in most homesteaders bag of tricks to make free organic fertilizer & soil amendments as well as fishing bait.
