Worms require newspaper or some sort of clean bedding to help insulate them. This is great for those who have lots of paper to recycle. But we don't get a paper delivered. So I end up going to pick up a free copy of The Stranger to cut up, soak and lay as bedding. Does this cancel out any good the worms are doing in the first place?

Hey there,
I live in an apartment and have a small balcony and am trying to figure out the easiest, least smelly way to compost... any reccommendations? Do you just have a giant tub and throw all your food scraps, some newspaper and some worms in there and let it sit? When do you empty it?
My compost is in my garage, I live in a townhouse in South Florida with a very small backyard. The composting has been going great (On my 4th month), but I'm thinking of introducing worms to speed up the process. Do you have to use a special type of worm? Give them any special food besides the regular stuff I put in my compost??
Thanks for the great info. I just came across your blog and I'm cathing up on reading.
