and finding out they weren't kidding about using it for only a few minutes, due to overheating of the little motor inside, my family working as a team, was able to turn what normally would have been landfill paper into bedding for my worms!

Just goes to show that a little bit of effort goes a long ways!

****It's important to remember to use only cardboard, non-glossy paper, newspaper, etc. Anything with gloss, shininess, or glue should be avoided. When tearing up cereal boxes, I usually rip the glue parts off and then let my kids process the rest into tiny squares that can be easily applied to the Worm Inn as needed.
