I have worm composted in the past when I lived in the North East. I would like to worm compost here, but am concerned about the heat. I read that worms like 50-80 degree temps. I have a nice wooden bin going with dirt, scraps, and straw. Can I do worm composting here? Or is it too hot.

Thanks so much for your information.
