To explain, a thousand grains of sand is one thing, or a pound of sand is a something else.When ordering  worms by the thousand expect worm size to be smaller than a needle. Selling large worms which are like a chicken ready to lay eggs and stress less. Our Worm  Farm Started in 1965. Any question call 813 770 4794.

Studies have shown that invasive worms (Eisenia foetida, or"European Night crawlers). Their voracious appetites and reproductive rates (Eisenia foetida, or"European Night crawlers) have been known to upset the delicate balance of the hardwood forests by consuming the leaf litter too quickly. cause natural  impact on the environment.

with any non-native species, it is important not to allow them to reach the wild. Their voracious appetites and reproductive rates (especially among the red wigglers) have been known to upset the delicate balance of the hardwood forests by consuming the leaf litter too quickly. This event leaves too little leaf letter to slowly incubate the hard shelled nuts and leads to excessive erosion as well as negatively affecting the pH of the soil. So, do your best to keep them confined!

Eisenia foetida

Eisenia fetida, known under various common names, including redworms, brandling worms, tiger worms and red wiggler worms, are a species of earthworm adapted to decaying organic material. They thrive in rotting vegetation, compost, and manure; they are epigeal. They are rarely found in soil, instead like Lumbricus rubellus they prefer conditions where other worms cannot survive. They are used for vermicomposting. They are native to Europe, but have been introduced (both intentionally and unintentionally) to every other continent except Antarctica, occasionally threatening native species.

Here is a Helpful link in what to consider composting.
What goes in comes out. Compost material that has not been exposed to pesticides,herbicides,fertilizers,growth Hormones,and animal medications is seldom considered.
Grains that are genetically design for the crop to be sprayed with Roundup and used in Vermicomposting have serious effects on the worms.(Scientists reveal negative impact of Roundup Ready GM crops
The greater Percentages of soy beans and corn crops use this chemical.
 We compost material that has not been exposed to pesticides,herbicides,fertilizers,growth Hormones,and animal medications . What you put in is what you get out. We do not compost grains,newspaper and cardboard .Certain materials contain chemicals that do not break down. Grass clipping, shrubbery, and manures are of great concern. Certain Grains  are genetically design to spray the crops with Roundup.  It is important with composting with a Native Red Worm to Florida. We have found in 51 years of composting that toxins build up if you compost with contaminated material. Grains ,Lawn clippings,vegetable mater from commercial growing operations or Lawns carry excessive amounts of Pesticides,Herbicides which in turn kill the composting Worms.We find that manure from large dairy farms could have antibiotics or growth hormones. When obtaining any compost from animal manure such as cows ,horses, rabbits remember most people medicate and this comes out in the manure. Cow manure from Grass feed cows has been a good source for great compost. It important to get live microbes when buying compost. The amount of moisture is very important. Dry compost has less microbes. Fresh Compost with a fair amount of moisture is full of life.


Why Use Earthworm Castings?

With the exception of water and sunlight, nothing could be more natural for your garden than earthworm castings. Not steer manure, not chicken manure, not even fish emulsion is as natural for your garden as earthworm castings! After all, when digging in your garden have you ever found a live cow, chicken, or fish? No, what you do find are live worms. Mother Nature created the mighty worm about 570 million years ago to care for her plant life by caring for the soil. As the earthworm eats its way through the soil, it takes in bits of soil and rotting or decaying plants (organic matter).
And what comes out is the richest food your plants will ever find, yet will not burn a plant! Earthworms have the unique ability to increase the amount of nutrients and minerals in the soil by as much as 10 times the value of the plant debris there. These minerals and nutrients are properly conditioned for the best root growth and lush plant growth – plus it’s odor free!
Why Hemp Growers Use Worm Casting .
 
One of the biggest challenges they face is trying to identify the perfect Hemp plant food. While it's often been overlooked, because it's somewhat difficult to find, worm castings are proving to be the ideal soil supplement for Hemp growers.
Many growers have found that it shortens the germination cycle for new plants, increases yield on their crop overall, and does it all while protecting the plants from disease. As if that wasn't enough, worm castings are also chemical-free. This makes it an especially attractive option for organic growers, specifically.
