[QUOTE="Deacon, post: 288756, member: 8619"] Thomas, I cut armholes in my worm bin just like your DIY and was so excited about not having moths flying in my face! However, I am having trouble finding sleeves that the worms don't eat through in a day! When I open the arm hole lids, the rings are full of worms! First I used plastic turkey bags (like what you can quick-cook a turkey. They shredded them!) So I sewed organza sleeves with elastic wrist bands and was so pleased. The worms have never eaten through the organza on the air vent so I thought it would be a good choice. Again, 24 hours later, the worms had eaten through and were in the ring. They even ate the really heavy duty rubber bands I used! Has anyone else followed this DIY and had success with your sleeve choice? If so, what are you using? Thanks, Nancy [/QUOTE]
