We are happy to share our worm family with you!

Why Buy Red Wigglers?

  • Can quickly consume and process large amounts of organic material. By many estimates composting worms consume ~ 1/2 their weight in just a few days. So 1-2 pounds of red wiggler worms can consume several pounds of organic waste per week!
  • Are easy to take care of and usually require less than 20 minutes per week of care (for feeding and light watering/misting).
  • Survive and thrive in wider temperature, moisture, and soil pH ranges than other worms. Compost worms thrive in bed temperatures between 65-85 degrees Fahrenheit and can survive in much colder or warmer temperatures if they live in the ground or soil.
  • Can consume many types of organic waste, and they are able to process the waste into rich vermicompost (aka worm castings) that is a proven soil amendment in producing higher yield and drought-resistant plants and vegetables in home gardens and commercial enterprises.
  • What’s in Your Order of Composting Worms?

Your order will include live red wiggler compost worms in dry peat moss, carefully packed in a reusable sack. Your order includes:

  • Mostly mature adult compost worms
  • Instructions for unpacking and caring for your live worms.

When Will Your Red Wrigglers Order Ship?

We ship are orders on Mondays and Tuesdays to ensure the worms arrive before the weekend.  Most orders ship within 1-2 business days via USPS Priority or UPS. You will receive an order confirmation after completing your order and a tracking number once the package is shipped.

**We’re sorry that worms can not yet be shipped to the states of Hawaii, Alaska or Puerto Rico.

What to do When your Red Wrigglers Arrive

  • Like other living creatures, red wrigglers worms are perishable and will not survive in certain conditions, so as soon as they arrive they should be brought inside.
  • The box with live compost worms should be opened and the sack containing the worms should be opened as well. This helps increase air flow to the live worms and also cool them. NOTE: The worms may seem lethargic at first. This is because they have been confined to a small space and in transit for several days. We do not recommend refrigerating the worms.
  • As soon as possible (within a few hours at a minimum) the red wrigglers should be placed in the bin or pile where they will reside. Since the worms are shipped in their original bedding the entire bag of bedding and worms can be placed in the bin  with moist bedding or compost pile.
