PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Great for composting!

Red “Wiggler” Worms may not be predators, but they are essential for building healthy, nutrient-rich soil. These industrious worms consume half their weight in organic material daily, enriching and aerating the soil. Their tunneling improves soil structure, while their nutrient-rich castings support beneficial microbes that enhance fertility.

Our Red Worms are carefully cultivated on managed farms, undergoing thoughtful harvesting and quality checks. Each retail package includes a generous mix of cocoons, newly hatched wisps, and mature adults—ideal for jump-starting compost bins or enriching garden beds.

Discover more ways to cultivate thriving, nutrient-rich soil with our Living Soil solutions—featuring beneficial nematodes, rove beetles, soil amendments, and more. Click here to explore!

PRO TIPS
  • Keep your worms fed with a readily available food source. Our Worm Chow will help boost your worm population.

  • Introduce in the morning, evening, or on a cloudy day.

  • Water soil before application. Soil surface should be kept moist.

  • Worm castings are a natural soil amendment and one of the best known sources of nutrients that plants need to grow.

  • Pesticides, even wetting agents, and spreader-stickers may adversely affect beneficial insects' survival. Broad spectrum and systemic insecticides are toxic.
