Question

We should not add wastes containing salts, pickles, oil, vinegar, meat and milk products in the vermicomposting pit to feed the redworms. Why?

Answer 1

Wastes containing salt, pickle, oil, vinegar, meat and milk products cannot be used as food for the redworms in a vermicomposting pit because these items can lead to the growth of disease-causing small organisms. These small organisms may harm the redworms and hinder the preparation of compost.
