The accumulated resources needed to construct a Worm Bin will sell for 845g, without any professions. This means that it will take a Worm Bin about 42 days to pay for itself. This becomes far worse if the player is buying these materials; assuming the player buys the gold and iron in year one, a single Worm Bin will instead cost 4,675g, and will take 267 days to pay for itself.
 
 
 
However, it is important to note that this does not account for the opportunity cost of traveling to the beach to buy bait. While bait is cheap, it takes a significant amount of time to travel to Willy's to buy it, and if the player is doing so regularly, the lost time can quickly add up. By contrast, Worm Bins can be placed along common paths, so their collection becomes incidental to other tasks.
 
 
 
In other words, if the player is using significant amounts of bait and finds themselves making regular trips to Willy's, and they are able to collect the resources themselves, they may find Worm Bins more useful than they may, at first, appear.

Cost

The resources needed to construct a Worm Bin will sell for data-sort-value="845">Gold.png845g, without any professions. This means that it will take a Worm Bin about 42 days to pay for itself. If buying the materials (in year one), a single Worm Bin will instead cost data-sort-value="4675">Gold.png4,675g, and will take 267 days to pay for itself.

Worm bins outside the farm

It is possible to place chests and other crafted items outside the farm. Chests are useful for storing gifts close to the homes of Villagers who prefer them or to allow additional storage when Mining, Fishing, or Foraging. Worm Bins can be placed near fishing spots, Furnaces can be placed at the entrance to the Mines, and entire sections of the Valley may be utilized for Keg or Preserves Jar processing. Common Trees can be planted in tillable soil and tapped.

If a villager walks through the square where a crafted item was placed, the item will be destroyed. Below are player-created maps to indicate which tiles on the map are safe from villager-pathing. The tiles with the Rotten Plant should be safe.

Safe-pathing images of the interiors of homes and buildings can be found in the complete image gallery located at https://imgur.com/a/JlRXGlc

Note that items placed on the docks at the beach may be destroyed by villagers during the Dance of the Moonlight Jellies, Night Market, or by Emily if married to her. The image below is accurate for players who do not attend the festivals and don't marry Emily.

Note: These images are accurate as of v1.4; they do not include any of Leo's paths outside of The Mountain.
