One of the things to watch in the worm is temperature. Although the worms endure a very comfortable range, cold or intense heat affect your lifestyle, to the point of stopping them. Normally the cold is the most that can affect your worms, because it is complicated to have them inside your home when you are freezing outside. Heat as it is more manageable, you just need to put your Vermiculture in the shade and it will stand quietly.
However, my nephew of 6 years I taught an important lesson. It saw my worms and wanted to have one for him. As I am a guy in full swing, I gave some to begin to see the worm, which best seen from the kid, but his first experience was a little sad. As we are scratching around 44 degrees Celsius during the day, the heat is quite entertaining.
Although I gave the boat was in the shade during the day there was a time when direct sun gave a section of the boat. This made the interior practically cook, so all the worms I gave her life passed away. No way, you have to start again, but I think it is important to mention this: the younger your Vermiculture, the faster it will affected by temperature.
My containers are large, but still had a loss when it dropped an umbrella that covered and there was no one at home (for the moment I'm working out of town). This led to the interior of the tanks almost boiling and remain warm for long. Change ... bastantitas lost, but hey, the point is that the container's size made it not so serious the matter, always had a bit where you could cool.
The problem is that if you have a few worms and a small container, you'd better have it well protected. The sun can take all day to heat mine up make them dangerous for the worm, but yours can be heated up to do a death trap in less than an hour.
not hurt to take this if you have a few worms and a small container. The worm can not give much, but when it does, beware of the consequences ...
