Recycle your paper waste by composting with worms.

by Matthew Wilson

If you have lots of paper trash, look no further than the lowly worm to recycle it. Worms will consume office paper, cardboard, newspaper, paper plates, paper towels and on it goes. Just throw them into your worm bin and they will eat it right up.

When the worms are finished you will have worm castings. Castings can be used to grow new paper, or more practically any plant, fruit or vegetable you choose.
