Simply, once you
receive your Anphu Worm Bin®
immediately remove the coir and soak it
for 1 hour. This allows all of the
fibers to absorb the water and prevents
it from drying out prematurely. We also
recommend that you soak shredded
newspaper or cardboard to add to the
coir bedding. This provides the worms
with an additional safe food source.
Follow the instructions provided with
your worm bin to assemble it. Make sure
to put the fabric material provided
between the bottom tray and the
leachate
collection tray. If you did not receive
this fabric, you can use ground weed
control fabric or some other fabric that
will provide airflow. This prevents the
worms and the bedding from falling from
the lowest tray into the leachate
collection tray.
After you have assembled your Anphu Worm
Bin® and soaked your worm bedding, it is
time to add the worms. First, remove the
excess water from the coir and
newspaper/cardboard by squeezing it out.
It should be as moist as a wrung out
sponge. Next, pull this material apart
and make it “fluffy”. Add it to the
lowest tray. Put in a scoop of soil from
your yard. (Do not use potting soil.)
This provides the microbes that help to
break down the food. The worms ingest
these microbes and some of the dirt.
Put a small amount of food in one corner
of the tray. Pull back the bedding
material, put the food in and then cover
the food with the bedding. This helps to
prevent fruit flies from invading the
bin. If you do end up with fruit flies,
read about pest problems and how to get
rid of them in our
Frequently Asked Questions. Now add
the worms. 1 or 1.5 kg of worms is
a good amount to start with. We
recommend
Anphu worm compost.
You can store the remaining trays and
roof on top of the tray that you just
put the worms and bedding into or you
can store the extra trays some place
else until you need them and just put on
the roof. You do not need to do anything
for a week.
After the week is up, take off the roof
and any empty trays that you may be
storing and check to see if the worms
ate all of the food. If most of it is
gone, go ahead and add more food at this
time. Put it in a different corner.
Worms will eat about 1/2 of their body
weight per day Read
more. Check to see what the moisture of the
bedding material is like. It should feel
like a wrung out sponge. If it feels
dry, mist it with a squirt bottle. If it
feels too wet, add dry bedding material,
like dry shredded newspaper or coir.
Therefore we store the empty extra trays
on top of the working trays. If you find
that too much moisture is present in the
bin, turn an extra tray upside down and
put it on top of your working worm tray.
Cover this upside down tray with the
same type of lightweight breathable
fabric that you used earlier under the
lowest tray. This will allow more
airflow through the bin and will also
give the worms their much needed shade.
When the tray is full of mostly worm
castings, add bedding material to the
next tray. Make sure that the bedding
and castings in the lower tray touch
this next tray so that the worms can
migrate upwards to the newest food
source leaving the bottom tray full of
nutrient rich compost (after 30 days you
will get 5kg of compost). This will draw
the worms out of the castings in the
lower tray and into the next tray.
Continue to repeat this entire process
with the remaining empty trays. Once
most of the worms have moved out of the
lowest tray and you are left with
castings, remove the lowest tray.
You can now
harvest the castings from the tray
that you removed. Remove any uneaten
bedding material, cocoons and worms from
the castings. Put all of your nutrient
rich castings into a container and clean
out the tray. You now have an empty tray
that can be used again. That is all
there is to it!! You can now use the
castings as fertilizer for your plants.

Composting with worms allows you to turn kitchen scraps, paper waste and cardboard into nutrient-rich soil for your plants. The Anphu Worm Bin system takes the effort out of composting.
With a thermo siphon air flow design, the Anphu Worm Bin increases the composting speed, now you can produce compost much faster than traditional composting methods. Master Gardeners agree, worm castings are one of the richest forms of fertilizer that you can use.
