My little NAC arrived safely, and the fruit flies showed up shortly after.
I always find a few worms inside the lid. Is that normal?
Is there a way to collect them easily?
Thanks
See you soon

I didn't find them very lively. I told myself that after a week things would get better... but I don't find them in great shape. After 3 weeks I got fungus gnats and bigger little black flies. I crushed up eggshells.
I have the impression that they don't eat much.

Worm Composter Maintenance22/10/2026

I've been using it for several years, but unfortunately this year was so hot that the worms couldn't withstand the heat of the successive heatwaves. The worm composter was outside, in the shade, but since my last delivery of Eisenia worms, I've set it up in a small garage at the bottom of the garden where the temperature stays more constant. However, in summer I get a few gnats that slip in along with the worms; I think they are attracted more by sugary waste (fruit).
Otherwise, I'm very happy to be able to enjoy the compost and the compost liquid, which I dilute to feed the vegetable garden.

I've been using the worm composter for a few years. I had to stop for 3 years for work reasons. With no feeding, no attention, nothing done at all, there were still worms inside after 3 years! That says a lot about the quality of the product!

I received the worms, put them in the composter and fed them well, but there are hardly any worms left (the heat?). I currently counted 2 worms, which is far from the teeming mass there was at the start. The composter is in the coolest spot possible given the high heat we've had.

Reply from Moutta Farm
We are sorry to hear that your worm population has dropped so much and we understand your disappointment.

Indeed, extreme heat can be fatal to worms, even when the worm composter is placed in a cool spot. The temperature inside the bin can be much higher than the ambient air temperature.

We advise you to keep the substrate moist, without excess water, and to ensure good ventilation. Please do not hesitate to contact us.

Been using our weary for five weeks the worms are doing really well. We’ve only actually lost a couple they’ve escaped and then we found them on the surface in the garage.

I've been composting for several years on my balcony, in large bins 70 cm high, with a drain 15 cm above the ground, with nothing but ordinary garden worms (only plant waste, cardboard, paper, peelings and trimmings from my plants). Never a problem, except this summer: suddenly a lot of odours: all the worms were dead (heatwave). I received their replacements once the weather had cooled down. They got to work. The odours are gone, and everything is fine for them and for us!

So far, after 3 months of use, everything is going well. They seem voracious and to have a good reproductive instinct? Final verdict next spring, when (if?) they will have digested 10 tonnes of compost…

Set up for 2 months in a cellar with a temperature of around 20°C.
The worms seem to adapt well, even during periods of absence, by adjusting the frequency of their "meals".

I restarted my worm composter at the beginning of September, after losing everything because of the drought (which I realised a bit too late...). It started up fine, then after a week the worms made a run for it!!! (probably because the substrate was too dry) So a huge thank you for the little manual delivered with the worms, I wouldn't have known what to do! I followed the recommendations (a new tray on top with dampened cardboard) and things went back to normal.
Since then the composting seems to be going normally, even though the worms seem a bit sluggish to me, they're working!
Warning about moisture: we keep a close eye on temperature and on excessive moisture (which attracts fungus gnats), but maybe not enough on dry conditions. I came close to disaster again because it has been very dry in Toulouse these past few weeks => you really need to moisten the substrate and temporarily stop adding cardboard if you see the compost getting too dry. We've never experienced a summer and an autumn like this, so we learn something new every day!
