The short answer
If an old article made this sound like a household how-to, let us tidy that up: putting dog poo bags into a worm farm is not general advice.
12:05A wormery is a living system. It is not a legal department for risky waste.
12:08Observation is not permission.
What matters
Compostable materials need the right conditions. Dog waste adds a health-risk question that a normal food-scrap wormery may not be designed to manage.
12:16Public composting guidance commonly warns against adding pet waste to ordinary home compost. Worm systems deserve the same caution.
12:24What to do instead
Use your local dog-waste disposal route. If you are composting at home, keep it to materials your system can handle and your council guidance supports.
12:31For food-waste caddy routines, use the council bin checker. For product questions, send us a message.
