Lid for Worm Café

Yes, as long as you protect the worm composter from the afternoon sun and from intense heat: worms work best between 59 and 77 °F (15–25 °C). In winter, when temperatures drop below about 23 °F (-5 °C), shelter it or bring it indoors until the cold snap passes. The Worm Café lid itself stays in place year-round.

All our tips: How can you protect your worm composter from cold and heat?

Under the Worm Café lid, a rectangular hemp mat, designed for the Worm Café, keeps moisture in the active tray and makes your worms even more active. To get the most out of the Worm Café's full capacity, our Worm Café tray lets you stack up to 5 trays, all topped with the same lid. Made from 100% recycled plastic, with built-in handles, this lid comes with a 2-year warranty.

The Worm Café lid shields your worms from light, which they avoid, and helps maintain a stable environment. It also keeps unwanted insects out. Its built-in handles make it easy to lift every time you add food scraps. Made from 100% recycled plastic, it fits right in with the Worm Café's contemporary design.
