I went to check on the worms because they were escaping, and when i tried to turn the bin, the bottom inch was like a brick. I then realized that the bin was nearly solid vermicompost and they were nearly out of food! (only a few small pieces which I put in the new bin.) I also added a little sand for grit, a few egg shells, filtered water and non-color soy-ink newspaper.
For indoors, I suggest you don't bring any leaves or sticks in from outdoors, because they can have tiny eggs that hatch in your worm bin. Such as spiders, earwigs, gnats, and so on.
