Do any of you guys have a compost? What are some tips or tricks for keeping them alive, or building it..anything. Thanks!

I have the worm factory but you can build one with a big rubbermaid container. Poke some holes on top for fresh air. You can add just about most things in it from mail, coffee filters, left over fruits and veggie, etc... No dairy products (milk, cheese, etc), no plastics, no meat (chicken, beef, etc). You can youtube worm bin for ideas. Red Wiggles are best for compost but night crawlers better for fishing. I have Red Wiggles and I will use them for fishing. Worms have both organs so they are all males and females. They will double every 3 months. So if you have 100 now in 3 months you will have 200, 3 more months 400, 3 more months 800 etc... They are about $50 for 2 lbs which is about 2,000 worms. They can't see but they can sense where food is and they will migrate to what you give them. When you get your first set of warms put a light on near the bin. That will keep them from trying to crawl out because they dont like light. But after a couple of days they are use to the new home and you can turn the light off and they will stay there forever.

I feed my a bag of apples every 2-3 months and I have a bunch of worms. If you feed them daily or weekly you will get a whole bunch.

Thanks!

Thanks!

Good advice, I am thinking about putting one of these (a small one) on the deck at my apartment to get cheap fishing bait for me and the little guy to use. I know my grandfather use to pick the giant grubs out of his and they consistently caught the largest panfish.
