Default What kind of worms?

In article ,

I was told here some time ago
that the worms provided with wormeries
are the same as the worms anglers use.

When I went to my locl angling shop and requested worms,
I was asked whether I wanted "rag worms",
which I gathered are for sea angling, or "garden worms".

Which would be most appropriate for a wormery?


You don't need to buy them if the stuff is in contact with the soil it
will get full of the correct sort of worms all by its self



Exactly. No need to buy them, if you cannot have a proper compost heap ask
a neighbour who has one to give you some to start you off again.
I have hundreds of thousands in my large compost heap.
If OP is desperate and can get them nowhere else, I can send some for the
cost of postage, if he promises to look after them properly ;p
