It doesn't seem to get too wet inside, so I don't think they're actually necessary. I met someone who had one of the tray systems and she complained that the compost was too compacted by the weight of the trays and most of the worms never migrated to the top trays. So I decided it wasn't worth the cost. We actually don’t have holes on the bottom, just the top, because we were worried about leakage.

I've been eyeing those fancy worm bins like on the Greenest Dollar post and wondering if that would solve our problems. But then again, I'm cheap.
