Please make worms stop spawning at 100% efficiency

Can you please make it so, that once you reach 100% worm efficiency, worms and pythons stop spawning in compost bins?
Or make the spawning worms approach the average purity of the worms and pythons in the bin, getting closer to that average as worm efficiency rises.

It is such a major PITA to have to check you compost bins continuously for 0% pure worm spawns that will ruin humus purity.

Why would 0% worms from the ground stop coming into the compost bins ?

No, what would be logical, would be to build a better compost bin with no freaking holes to let new worms enter.

I don't think you can have compost without letting air inside...
Also the wood of the compost bin itself would eventually start to be decomposed so a temporary solution would be possible at most.
Maybe a reinforcement built out of oiled boards could slow down 0-pure worms spawn?

..how much does 1 worm out of 10 decrease the result purity by the way?

Or maybe in a similar way to how drying boards can catch mold from other object near them, compost bins could maybe have a higher chance of getting worms in them if they are on soil or grass. And a lower chance if they were on paved ground, as the worm would presumably have to crawl all the way across the paved ground from the dirt to get there.

Nice idea, +1!
