Magnet, The Worm Diet

Yes, the “Worm Diet” magnet was designed as a simple, fun reminder for the whole family. It comes in especially handy during the first few weeks, when you're still wondering whether you can feed the worms one food scrap or another.

To get kids involved, check out our guide: “Introducing Kids to Vermicomposting: A Fun and Educational Activity.”

The magnet is made in France. This magnetic board, with a built-in magnet on the back, makes a handy everyday companion to your worm composter.

Once it's on the fridge, the whole family can see it, right when it's time to sort the waste.

Thanks to its built-in magnet on the back, it sticks to your fridge or any metal surface. Ideally, place it where you prepare meals and sort your food scraps, so you can check at a glance whether a scrap can go in the worm composter.

Yes. Composting worms eat the same diet no matter which model you have: stacking-tray, continuous-flow, planter, or in-ground worm composter. The basic rule is still to add as much carbon-rich material (cardboard, paper) as fresh food scraps.

The magnet also reminds you which scraps to avoid. For the full list and explanations, see our guide: “What can you feed the earthworms in your worm bin?”
