The music is so loud in places that it drowns out the speakers who are really informative. Isn't it risky to use a potentially invasive species like Eisenia foetidae rather than a native species like African Night Crawlers? Even if you're very careful, cocoons and worms are likely to escape into the environment. Also, wouldn't African Night Crawlers be able to survive the heat better so that those which escape can colonise the soil.

If you pay for garbage pick up , these worms will reduce your garbage bill. They also eat cardboard and paper . They are your natural garden disposal crew. I love these little guys. They produce compost that is the best . That's why they call it black gold
Please can you drop your contact
This is a take on the old way of making compost tea (including manures) in old Hogs Head barrels, to that was added lime ( could use wood ash) to neutralize odors. Read the book Ten Acres Enough and you learn of how it’s judicious use made a six acre homestead produce far more than much larger homesteads. He became the talk of the town and was settled on not taking on more land because his produced so effectively.
You can also follow the video they explained clearly what they do
