Its great to hear that you are composting using worms!
I live in JP and have been using worms to make compost for 32 yrs.
I use a simple method though, that I learned from my grandmother from Italy . I just dig a hole in the ground deep enough to cover my bag of vegetable scraps that I keep in a plastic bag in the freezer. Cover with dirt and forget about it. Takes about two -three weeks I think for the worms to eat it all. I use a plot of formerly sandy, clay soil under my deck. A 3. X 5' area has swallowed all the scraps of 32 yrs from one person.
Then I use the compost around the house in the garden. I didn't bring in any special worms or containers, just dig a hole and cover it up. No smell and the wild animals don't bother it. Also keeping scraps in the freezer prevents smelling up the house , especially in summer. Good luck to all who try.
Cheers

Very cool idea. Makes tons of sense. Did you do that all winter too?

Hi. Yes I did. Usually the ground where I'm burying scraps doesn't totally freeze but there may be a few weeks in very cold winters that I can't dig. But this year I've been able to bury scraps all winter. Was just out there this morning.
My grand mother grew all her own food in the yard. She dived the yard in half. Grew veggies on one half and buried scraps in the other half then switched each year. My cousins and I would dig up the worms for bait for fishing.
