Feeding Worms Cloth Wipes?

12 years ago

On occasion, when we travel, we use disposable cloth baby wipes. These end up getting washed with our cloth diapers and come out looking rather clean. I know I can throw these in our regular compost bin, but I was wondering if it would be ok to add these cloth squares to our worm bin?

try one wipe with your next feeding and see what happens. having been washed I would assume the chemicals have been removed.

If no worms are found around the wipe, then just keep throwing them in the regular compost pile
