Hanging Worm Hotel
The unique Indoor Outdoor Worm Inn has been designed with practicality in mind. The 4 top loops allow for suspension from a sturdy shelf, plant bracket or tree branch. Durable Cordura poly fabric insures long life while resisting the elements. Simply unzip the mesh cover, dump food scraps and shredded cardboard on top, and let the wormies do the rest. Compost tea dribbles quietly through the lower opening while finished casting accumulate at the tapered bottom. Harvest is easy and fun using the drawstring closure. Simply open, squeeze gently on the bottom walls, and push the casting out into a receiving bucket. The vast majority of redworms remain in the top feeding sections, eliminating the need for manually separation of worms from compost. Very innovative design! PVC stand pictured in one of the photos is not included and is for illustration purposed only.
