Do Earth worm castings contain worm egg
Hi,
My garden seems totally devoid of earthworms (nightcrawlers). I think the
previous owner killed them with insecticide or some crap. Its been 2 years
already and I've been digging and planting my flowers- but absolutely zero
sign of them.
I noticed however- in a nearby park- there seems to be quite a bit of
wormcastings, ie a collection of dark small dirt balls. I heard that the
wormcastings may contain worm eggs.
So I was wondering whether its worthwhile collecting the wormcastings and
placing them in my compost bin so as to rear earthworms? Would that work?
Cheers,
Wylie
