DO NOT use DISTILLED water. Use SPRING WATER if you plan to use bottled
water. Distilled water is hypotonic to the worms. It is TOO pure. It lacks
the dissolved salts, minerals, and other solids that are supposed to be in
water. ALWAYS use spring water for organisms/critters/protozoa, etc. NEVER
use distilled water. Distilled is for baby formula, because the formula
adds back the dissolved solutes not found in the distilled water.

Typically I only harvest them once or twice a year so it doesn’t hurt as
much. Usually the fertilizer I get from each harvest will last me long
enough long enough for the next harvest. But if you want to build something
look for “warm harvesters” here on youtube and you will see some great DIY
ideas. Hope that helps.
Good walk through. I’d love to see the other ways you tried or know of how
to separate worms out. This has been the only time inefficient part of the
process for me. Thanks

I hear adding used coffee grounds to a “worm house” (fish bait worms) will
make them work triple time maybe that will help this process also.
