The average family generates 7kg (15lbs) of food waste a week, just for reference.
It allows you to compost directly in your garden allowing the worms and microbes to distribute nutrients into the soil.
You will soon see if your worm composter is too wet – it looks visibly sodden.
Your moisture mat is just there to encourage your worms to work in the surface of the waste and as it is biodegradable the worms will eventually eat it.
Sometimes some of your worms migrate to the sump which is mostly more distressing for you than them to be honest.
Usually a lack of worm juice is one thing…
Assuming you are adding your food scraps every couple of days as you lift the moisture mat you will see the worms working just below the surface.
