If I don't find any worms, I'll go and buy some at the gardeningshop again.

Something in the back of my mind says that composting worms (eg
tigers) cannot survive in garden soil, and earthworms cannot survive
in compost unless there is a certain amount of soil to go through
their gut.

I just throw everything I can find, and a bit of soil into cut off
corrugated iron tanks, and I seem to have plenty of both sorts in
there - but I have never found a tiger in the actual garden.
