Hello
I’ve been out of the loop for a while since late last year all my worms escaped due to heat and BSFL. I still have my VB48 which last year I removed the pips from the bottom and replaced with it with wood that I stapled plastic, and sealed all Corners and sides to protect me from BSFL. It didn’t help at all.
Just recently I brought home euros and reds right now they are in Rubbermaid bins. I really would like to transfer them to the Vb48 but before I do that I would like to make some improvements to the Vb48 to help with the heat issues im going to have here in Ga.
Is there any recommendations you guys could give me, to help improve my bin? Should i take the bottom off the been and put the pips back in and use a false bottom?

That’s good to hear! I like how you always start something so “Normal” and then never stays “Normal” for long, you must be thinking: Hmm wonder what would happen if I did that? or maybe this? LOL!
Keep up the great work!

Yeah for sure, Dermy! When I WAS using it as a proper vermicomposting system, it certainly worked well.

Cool, that system looks like it could really compost some food wastes if you really wanted it to, especially if you did all the Food Optimization and such. Good Job with the System!
