Reader Question: Can I Put Meat In My Worm Bin?

Can I put meat in my worm bin?

There is a lot of published information out there about what to feed and what not to feed your worms. One of the things that comes up again and again is that you should not feed meat to your worms. However, the main reasons given for this are not that it would hurt the worms or produce bad worm compost; the reasons given are that it may produce bad smells or attract unwanted pests. I think for this reason that, if your worm bin were outside or in the garage, you could feed small amounts of these items (well buried) without much consequence. 

I'm going to go ahead and run a test here and put a meatball (daring, I know!) into one of my bins at the warehouse. I'll report back in a week or so and let you know how the worms react, whether the worm compost near the meatball seems odd, if it smells bad, or if it has maggots. Stay tuned!

Good worming!

So, how'd it go? Does it stink? Was there a worm revolution? Did they eat it up?
