Vermicompost is compost made from the wastes of the creepy crawlers a.k.a. earthworms. If it sounds Greek to you, its concept is simple. The earthworms eat away the dried leaves and twigs collected in a two-level container until they turn it into a black, fine grain-like substance or, in short, compost. For a person without any experience about, we recommend to get some dry leafs form a non resinous tree, put them in a recipient, and fill it with water so the leafs the maximum possible of humidity. Leave the leafs in the water for 24hs and then, thru them in a humid corner in the ground or in some recipient that don't accumulate water but conserve the humidity. You can add wet paper to this. Taking care of humidity (80%), in a few days it becomes in a perfect food to the worms
