Will the Worm-A-Roo smell?
A. The only smell associated with a well maintained Worm-A-Roo system is a pleasant rainforest odor. If your Worm-A-Roo has an offensive smell, it is an indication that anaerobic bacteria have built up in the system in uneaten food wastes. Stop feeding the worms and stir the wastes in the tip tray lightly with a garden fork, adding garden lime as well. This aerates the organic material and allows worms to move through it more easily. Repeat this aeration procedure regularly to prevent recurrence. Start feeding again when all smells are gone.
