You'll want to open up this can of worms to show your friends what YOU are doing for Hawaii! The Can-O-Worms houses worms in over 300,000 homes, schools, and offices around the world. Since 1994, Can-O-Worm colonies have diverted 100,000 tons of food and other household organic waste from landfills and converted it into valuable vermicast.

Place the Can-O-Worms in a sheltered, cool spot, either indoors or outdoors. There is no odor to attract rats, insects, or the interest of household pets.

Here's how it works
Start your vermicomposting system by bedding the worms in the first working tray. As they eat your garbage, the tray fills with vermicast. When filled, place the second tray on top. The worms migrate up through the mesh bottom to reach new food as it is added. Place the third tray on top when the second tray is filled. When all three working trays are filled, harvest the vermicast from the bottom tray. That empty tray goes on top.

It takes 9 to 12 months to complete one cycle and fully populate your worm bin if you start with the manufacturers' recommendation of one pound - about 1,000 - worms. (You can start successfully with fewer worms, it just takes longer!) Once the Can-O-Worms has been built up to capacity, your worm colony will produce a full tray of dark, rich castings approximately every four months.
