You can work for the benefit of the future harvest even in the winter in your apartment – organic waste will help you with this.
It should be noted that 40% of the garbage thrown into the bin falls into the category of organic waste.
But when this organic waste ends up in landfills, it negatively impacts the environment by producing methane.
Therefore, we propose to create a simple device with which you can prepare compost for the garden for the next season.
How to make a vermicomposter at home
It is enough to take a box made of opaque durable plastic and make holes inside it. You also need to cut a ball valve into it.
Your task is to create comfortable conditions for the worms. Fill the container 1/3 full with shredded napkins, cardboard and paper – moisten it all with a spray bottle.
After this, we put the worms in the container and carefully place fruit peels on top of them, but do not use citrus fruits, garlic, onions and other remains of crops with strong odors.
After 2-3 days, you can gradually begin to add new waste to the vermicomposter.
