Redworms - Eisenia Foetida
Redworms - Eisenia Foetida
Hungry Composting Worms
Charles Darwin said, "All the fertile areas of this planet have at least once passed through the bodies of earthworms."
Redworms, Eisenia foetida, will eat half their body weight daily in organic matter and convert it into dark, soil-enriching castings full of live microorganisms and nutrients. They can tolerate considerable heat but prefer an outdoor temperature range of 32°F- 84°F. They are most active at temperatures between 60°F- 70°F.
***Worms are unable to ship if temperatures are over 90 Degrees due to them being a living organism needing to survive in cooler temperatures so this may delay shipping especially during the Summer season. ***
Redworms absolutely require a moist, friable, pesticide-free environment with plenty of organic matter. Although this species of worm is intended for composting, you may "plant" 4 worms/square foot in lawns and gardens, 100 or more worms/square foot in compost piles, and 20 worms/square foot of dripline in orchards. Keep in mind these worms are not earthworms and are much smaller than those. They are composting worms and perform as such.

Price includes delivery via Priority Mail (US Postal Service) either to your mailbox, or to a Post Office box.
Redworms will ship within 5 business days of your order. You can also request a delayed delivery in the Order-Specific Comments box. We can only accept ship dates up to three weeks out. Vendor may delay shipment due to weather concerns.
These creatures will die if left in direct sunlight or in a rural mailbox on a hot afternoon, or in cold weather.
We only guarantee viability if someone accepts and inspects the insects immediately upon delivery. You must contact us immediately upon delivery if you suspect a viability problem. Because of this, often the best address to use is a work address. If the Post Office is instructed to leave the package in a cool, safe place and it’s for a short period of time, viability should not be compromised, but cannot be guaranteed. If no one is available and no instructions have been left, delivery may be re-attempted the next business day. However, viability may be compromised and will not be guaranteed.

Bringing alot of good pollinators
Growing great
Germination rate was nearly 100% plants are looking healthy looking forward to the harvest .
Fantastic product quick to germinate and covers the ground really well.
Arrived healthy and full of leaves!
Omg, omg,
This is such a delight we are so over the top... To be able to grow our own Oranges,oh my!!!!
Thank you arrived beautifully
Was just like the discrimination and then some. Nice size and all intact.. Would buy from again!
This is the best burlap I have ever had. Have purchased these 3 times. They're strong and hemmed, no strings hanging ever. They're great to shade veggies and keep heavy winds from blowing young plants over. Love 'em!
Great Stuff!
For the first time ever I will know what I planted at the end of the season! No fade & no running ink.
We get so many compliments about this flower. It looks like a small lily with tentacles or antennae. The flowers are so bright red, they really do pop. The curling of the petals gives this a unique look that really stands out! These are supposed to multiply so I'm excited to see this flower mature.
The deer in my area run out of food and will pretty much eat anything. Even things that should be deer-resistant. Something about this flower makes them think twice. This flower never gets eaten. Not only does this flower look beautiful it brings the pollinators. I'm going to plant more!
No flowers are visible yet, but the plants look very healthy. I'm excited to see them when they finally bloom.
This weeder is one of the best tools I have added to my collection. I have had other stand-up weeders. They all work great and eliminate the need to bend over. This one stands apart from the others with its 4 claw design. The extra claws give it extra grip for the hard weeds. I did not expect to use the weed ejector, but having that to drop the weeds into my bucket is a bonus. Forget about Grandpa, this is the one!
