Live Red Wigglers
The composting workhorse, from our San Jose beds — for starting a worm bin, seeding a compost pile, or boosting a tired one. Scooped with bedding so they arrive settled, not stressed.
Not for lawns
These are surface feeders built for bins and piles — not earthworms for aerating turf. If you want better lawn soil, top-dress withcastingsinstead.
Settling in
Add to a bin with moist bedding — shredded cardboard works. They settle in within a week or two.
Feeding
Vegetable scraps, a little at a time. Keep the bin shaded and damp — they do the rest.
How many
A half pound starts a household bin; a pound gets it working fast.
