What do compost worms eat?

Compost worms eat organic waste and, together with microorganisms, break it down into valuable vermicompost. Anyone who operates a worm farm or a compost bin quickly asks themselves: What exactly do compost worms eat?

Basically, compost worms love soft, moist, and plant-based materials. This includes a lot of kitchen waste that accumulates daily in the household.

Suitable food for compost worms
Compost worms eat, for example:

• Fruit and vegetable scraps
• Lettuce leaves
• Potato peels
• Coffee grounds with filter
• Tea leaves and tea bags without plastic
• Crushed eggshells
• Paper and cardboard in small quantities
• Wilted plant remains

It is important that the food is given in small quantities and well distributed. This keeps the system in balance and the worms can process the material more easily.

What compost worms don't like

Some substances are less suitable for compost worms or should only be given very sparingly:

• Meat and fish
• Onions and garlic
• Dairy products
• Heavily spiced foods
• Large amounts of citrus fruits
• Oily or very salty food scraps
• Heavily moldy waste

Too much unsuitable material can lead to odors, acidification, or an imbalance in the worm farm.

Tips for feeding

Compost worms eat best when the conditions are right:

• Feed regularly, but not too much
• Cut food as small as possible
• Ensure sufficient moisture
• Supplement dry materials such as cardboard or paper
• Always adjust feeding to the worms' pace

With the right food, compost worms remain active and reproduce particularly well under good conditions.
