But, the holes were only about an ⅛ inch in size and separated the castings nicely.ĭoing some more thinking, I thought about what what might have that same size holes.
It worked great but was a very slow process. Others looked like they would make a mess since there was no way to contain the castings.įor the first couple times of filtering the castings, I used our kids sand sifter from their sandbox. Those seemed to make a lot of sense to me, but they all seemed to require a lot of work to make. This system does all that!ĭoing a bunch of research online, I found the trommel systems. I wanted something simple to make, very low cost, very easy to use, and contains the mess. Everything took time, time that I would rather use having fun or for getting other things done. I found there was no easy way of separating the castings from the worms, the bedding, and the food that was not yet broken down by the worms. The worms don’t move that fast and there is still bedding and food in the way. I felt that the method of placing the worms and castings in piles under a bright light, such as the sun, was a very inefficient method. I have tried to separate the castings from the worms with very little success. It is easy to collect all these worm castings and it keeps all the big stuff separated. I feel that one of the easiest ways to collect the worm castings is with the use of a harvester. This compensation helps me keep this blog running and free of charge to readers like you.
