Planting my spring garden and as I was digging up the soil from the winter garden I noticed that I didn’t see any earthworms. I put 1000 of them in the garden last spring but I guess they crawled away. I usually order all of my beneficial bugs (worms, praying mantis egg pods, lacewings and lady bugs) from Amazon, but the shipping went up and none of it was prime.

Anyone know of any place in BR that has them for a good price?


ETA: some gardening pics for your trouble

Ground has them for free baw.

Build a mulch pile in a corner of your property someplace. Works for me.

Yeah, I used to dig them for fishing all the time as a kid. If I can’t find them for a good price that’s what i’ll Do.

Last year I couldn’t get in for bass fishing. I tried for weeks with no luck. I prayed to the lord and the next day I had dozens in my lawn. Goes to show you

All of the pesticide you use for skeeter control and fireants and whatnot killed them. Or if your neighbor uses pesticides and has runoff into your area, they dead.

its true that earthworms are beneficial. New Zealand's soil could not support enough grass to sustain livestock before they brought in earthworms from England.
