Worm Factory DS3BT 3-Tray Worm Composter - Black

Worm Factory DS3BT 3-Tray Worm Composter - Black Review



Worm Factory DS3BT 3-Tray Worm Composter - Black Feature

  • Made with post-consumer recycled plastic, Dimensions 16-inch x 16-inch x 13-inch
  • Built in "worm tea" collector tray and spigot for easy draining.
  • Year Round Production
  • Odor Free Operation
  • Expandable up to 7 trays
Worm composting is an incredibly efficient way to convert kitchen scraps, junk mail and cardboard into nutrient-rich compost for your garden. Master gardeners agree that compost produced by worms will produce the best results and help your plants thrive. The Worm Factory's unique stackable, multi-tray design makes it the most efficient worm bin composter around. Worms begin eating waste in the lowest tray, and then migrate upward as food sources in that tray are exhausted. By allowing worms to migrate upward, the worms separate themselves from the finished compost that is ready for the garden. Besides the worm castings that are produced through this process, the Worm Factory also produces a second type of compost. As waste is broken down, moisture filters through your Worm Factory, taking nutrient-rich particles with it. This liquid fertilizer, know as leachate is gathered in the special collection tray of the Worm Factory and can easily be drained from the spigot. Simply add a handful of worms and your organic waste to the bottom tray. The worms will start processing the food. Once the bottom tray is filled add another tray. The worms migrate upward to the newest food source leaving the bottom tray full of nutrient rich compost. As waste is broken down, moisture filters through the system taking nutrient-rich particles with it. You can drain organic liquid fertilizer right from the spigot. It's compact square design gives the Worm Factory the smallest footprint of all worm composters. The Worm Factory's tray stacking system allows it to hold the largest capacity of compost in the smallest amount of space, making it the perfect composter for anyone with space limitations. The Worm Factory is simple to operate. When full, each tray weighs only 12.5 pounds making lifting and arranging trays effortless. The included 16-page instruction manual makes setup fast and easy and gives tips on how to best manage your Worm Factory composter year-round.

  • Greatly reduces flies, odors and neighbor complaints
  • Destroys pathogens, parasites and weed seeds
  • Degrades vaccines, antibiotics, worming agents and pesticides
  • Eliminates surface and ground water impacts; improves horse health
The O2Compost Micro-Bin Compost Kit is ideal for managing livestock manure of every variety as well as landscaping waste, food waste and pet wastes. It is perfect for processing manure from 1 to 4 horses, or the equivalent number of sheep and goats, chickens, rabbits, etc. It is also perfect for grass clippings, leaves and other garden debris along with kitchen scraps from the home, schools, summer camps, etc. By simply managing the flow of air through the compost mix, this method of composting: controls nuisance odors, rodents and flies; destroys weed seeds and pathogens in the mix; greatly expedites the composting process; and eliminates impacts to the environment – all without turning the compost pile. The finished compost is ready to spread on pastures or use in the garden within 30- to 60-days. The finished compost may also be used as a feedstock for worm bins (vermi-compost systems) or sold to local gardeners, nurseries and landscapers. The kit includes a training manual that teaches the basics of aerated composting, along with six bin designs, a small aeration blower, a timer to operate the blower, a 20-inch temperature probe, and an aeration manifold. With simple hand tools, you’ll be able to construct this portable compost system within a few hours using locally purchased plywood and lumber. In her book, “How to be the Perfect Horsekeeper”, Dr. Karen Hayes describes the O2Compost Micro-Bin as “The Perfect Manure Management System”. Composting with air is considered a Best Management Practice and will transform the “manure pile out back” into a clean and attractive manure management system that eliminates neighbor complaints and converts the expense of manure disposal into a new profit center for the farm or stable.
