What? You can never have too many Worm Systems! 😀

Dermy – TOO MANY!! lol – Seriously though, it all depends on your definition of “system”. I have lots of different beds outside (mostly integrated with my gardening projects). Inside, I currently have a Worm Inn Mega, a plastic bin system, and the VermBin48 (which isn’t really being used as an actual vermicomposting system, as explained in a recent post).

I still remember “The crazy vermicomposting pants”. That is an image I won’t forget.

Can’t wait for that next blog post Bently!

Any idea how many systems you have running at the moment?

That’s interesting, John! I have had a similar experience with T-shirts in the past as well.

Interesting as I’ve thrown white cotton shirts in my bin and had them disappear without a trace within 6 months. Granted I tend to just keep adding more to the top so maybe they are still in there if I dig deeper.

I remember that post. I went and tossed in some old shirts into my worm inn after that. One of the only things i ever regretted putting in my worm inn. Its been over a year now, and I still have strands of fabric coming out. It all gets tangled and just a all around pain.
But that’s just my experience with cloth in a bin.

I did an experiment when I started to raise worms back in 2007. I had a worm factory that I fed an old sock. In three months, all of the cotton from the sock was gone. Only left was the polyester.

I don’t know what chemicals are use in cotton or laundry detergent that will effect the worms.
