Question by tracywil0701: Can I leave a worm bed outside in freezing winter temperatures in Ohio?
I’m considering worm farming (red worms). I live in a townhouse so I’d have to keep the worm farms on my back porch. Can they survive winter’s freezing temperatures, and summer’s scorching hot temperatures? Also, I’ve heard that newspaper is the easiest bedding to use. Can you use pages with color print, or just the black and white print? Thanks!
