Leachate tray filter for Urbalive

Q: Is the Urbalive filter compatible with other worm composters?

No, this fabric filter is designed for the Urbalive leachate tray. It won't work, for example, with the WORMbox, which doesn't use a filter: with that model, a piece of frost cloth can serve as the same kind of barrier. For the WORMcube, choose its own filters, sold in packs of 3.

Q: What is the Urbalive leachate tray filter for?

Placed in the leachate tray, the Urbalive filter keeps the worms from crawling down and drowning in the worm tea. It also keeps solid vermicompost from getting through, so your worm tea stays clean and your spigot is less likely to clog.

Q: What should I pair the Urbalive filter with?

The Urbalive filter fits into the leachate tray for Urbalive, which is designed to hold it, and works hand in hand with the spigot for Urbalive. By holding back solid vermicompost, it keeps the worm tea clean and free-flowing. Under the spigot, our 1.1-quart (1-liter) leachate collector catches the worm tea and shows the correct dilution. Made from a durable fabric, with side loops for easy removal, the filter comes with a 2-year warranty.

Q: How do I install the filter in the Urbalive?

Place the Urbalive filter in the leachate tray, red tabs facing up, and press it down firmly all the way around. The side loops then make it easy to remove for maintenance. Next, set your first tray on top of the leachate tray. Replace the filter when it gets damaged: over time, the worms end up nibbling on it.

This fabric filter is an essential accessory for keeping your Urbalive worm composter working properly. Placed in the leachate tray, it effectively keeps composting worms from moving down into the lower part of the worm bin.

It also limits the passage of solids, which keeps the vermicompost from mixing with the worm tea and reduces the risk of a clogged spigot.

Handy for everyday use, it ensures a clean, smooth flow of worm tea while protecting your worms.

The built-in side loops make the filter easy to put in place, remove, and clean. Made from sturdy fabric, it is built to last and stand up to regular use.
