All I remember is I had them in a bin in my basement bathroom, and put the bin in the bath tub....Worms were everywhere in the bathroom trying to escape. I have no idea what I did wrong...Probably too wet! But honestly, after that, I'll just buy the worm castings! Just bought 2 bags for like $75 for a batch of super soil.

My granddad raised them in his basement when I was a kid for fishing...I remember he fed then corn meal, coffee grounds, etc...i thought it would be a fun hobby, but I guess i have enough fun hobbies already! But more power too you if you can raise them...It is like gold to plants!! Best of luck!!!
If they were escaping they did not like the conditions in there. I tried building a tote inside a tote DIY worm bin at first and even added airholes for venting but they all got out and many died on the basement floor. I now know it was too hot in there for them. They love airflow. Ended up buying a worm factory 360 which has airy waffle bottom trays that make it perfect for them. None have ever tried to leave; they love it in there.

I've bought from UJ's before for fishing not gardening. Service and quality of worms was great. Key is weather I think when you order. Sale on now

Great worms, mostly young ones and he only ships one day a week, but other than that its 100%.
