Format:Paperback
Excellent resource for getting started at vermicomposting, very similar to Mary's "worms eat my garbage" but from a uk perspective.
Informs you of everything you need to start/maintain and even build a worm system, as well as telling you more about the little wigglers themselves

It does! That is, composting in a wormery especially if you read this book. I did when I first started my wormery and everything has gone very smoothly and even through this cold winter my wormery is outside and the worms are still alive. The book explains all about why to compost in a wormery, what sort of worms you should have, what you should expect the bin to look like inside if all is going well and what to look out for if it is not, what to do and when, what sort of worm bin to get and what to do with the worm compost.
An excellent book for those who want to know how worms compost and particularly for those who want to set up their own worm bin.

Worm Composting is a great thing to do but i had always ended up with a horrid slimy mess until i bought Mr Pilkingtons book. Easy instructions on how to get lovely usable worm compost, how to build a worm bin and other useful information - great stuff. I have read them all and this is by far the best.

I was drawn to this recommended book having read the comments on a bbc dig-in page regarding worm farms. The bbc video did not get a good reception in the comments. Read more

worming their way
A detailed approach to practicalities of wormeries and enough sciencey stuff to help explain, and so adapt, their proposals.

Awfully boring rant
There are much better books on the subject out there. This one is boring, repetitive, ugly ... need I say more?
