how do I kill worms in my lawn

Blossom Wrote: A good question if your lawn gets a lot of shade. I have the same problem. Indeed, you have to let them dry out some before you can sweep 'em successfully. Tricky in high-dew days of autumn. The RHS "Encyclopedia Of Gardnening" says * The casts NEED to be removed since they provide a site for airborne weed-seeds to germinate in. * "Disperse by brushing. If numerous, apply carbaryl when the soil is warm & damp" You rest your case. Good advise Blossom but you cant buy Carbaryl now, is there a similar product you can buy ? As I said in a previous reply..... the traditional fertilizer/weed treatment Lawn Sand acts to acidify the to layer of soil and thus discourages worm action. In practice this only affects the very top layers of the soil and worm action in the bulk is not affected. So despite all the hectoring pro worm posts, adopting the old fashioned approach will give you a worm-cast free lawn but will not kill the worms. pk |

Hi There I am new to worm farming and i didnt know where to start but just wanted to give it a go. So thought i would have a search around the internet to see what info was available and couldnt really find much! However i did find a really great book to download which was incredibly informative and really easy to read. Now I am so excited as i have a better understanding as a complete novice and i highly recommend it to anyone starting out. I found it under this website: Beginners Guide to Starting a Worm Farm would appreciate any further advice from anyone.

Recent EU Regs have banned the use of powerful chemicals that kill worms in agriculture so there's not much around really, |
