About Us
We Supply Composting And Bait Worms, Worm Castings To Sunshine Coast.
- General Info
We hope to encourage more recycling of wastes into useful products for a sustainable future for our planet.
Our journey with worms started 30 years ago when I wanted to use worm castings in my vege patch to grow safe food for my family. We then joined a worm growing scheme which subsequently proved a fraud, catching hundreds of people out. Since then I have sold directly to the public in an ethical manner as honesty is not always a priority out there.
We grow all of our own worms which is why we can keep our prices down. We pack our worms only when required and so we are able to guarantee the health of our worms (they are not sitting on shelves in confined spaces for lengthy time periods). Most worm supplies state contents of containers are 1000 worms, 2000 worms etc. 1000 worms is widely regarded as one quarter kilogram which is how ours are packed, although we always pack an extra 5-10%.

FAQs
What types are they? Can I put them in the garden?
Compost worms are a mix of Reds (Eisenia Andrei), Tigers (Eisenia Fetida), Blues (Perionix Excavatus) which is very similar to the Australian species Spenceralia. Generally, none of them will do well in your garden unless it has a high level of organic materials. These 3 species prefer slightly different conditions ie temperature range, water content but generally co-exist very well and tend to complement each other as conditions change in your worm farm.
Will my bed smell? Can I keep it close to the house?
If cared for well, worm farms will not smell. Generally, any smell means the bed/food is too wet. If so add some shredded newspaper or cardboard to absorb excess moisture and then the worms will eat this too. A sprinkling of lime or dolomite will reduce acidity. Zeolite can be sprinkled also to absorb nitrogenous smells.
Where can I keep my worms?
There are several commercial bins available and they all have several redeeming features to make your worming experiences enjoyable. They are easy to move, easy to add food, generally easy to remove castings and keep vermin at bay. However, anywhere that you can contain worms while protecting them from the elements, keep tree roots out of the bed and keep vermin (rats and toads can be a problem) away is suitable. Many people use old bathtubs or boxes or construct box like containers.

The worm castings have done wonders for our plants that we use in our business. The service, quality and pricing are second to none. Really happy that we found Wormpower. Regards Palmwoods Florist.
