The food scraps can range from bread and grains to coffee grounds, egg shells, fruit and vegetable scraps, and tea leaves. They must not include branches or twigs, canine or feline feces, dairy products other than egg shells, fats, fish, meats, and oils or citrus in excess of more than one-fifth of total worm food.
