Plastic Worms Can Be Reused? - I Have a lot

I have 100 plus pounds of plastic worms and my brother has a hundred plus pounds of plastic worms he will give me if I want. From reading here on the forum it looks like the worms can be remelted and reused? Not sure I have the time to get into plastic molding. Is there a market for these or maybe can they be traded for some other plastics. Not sure if its worth the effort any advise appreciated.

I was planning on taking one of the new space rides and seeing if I could create a worm hole!!

Seriously though I have had people over the years give me bags of worms and I have bought way to many as my brother has!!

They can be reused and reheated. Give them to Bob Hinkle (Snake River) here on the forum. If I know him he will pass it forward to the many youth groups he helps. He will remelt them and inject them into the many molds he has and the end result will be new panfish lures to give away to classrooms, scouts and church groups. Welcome from Alabama. I would be interested in four pounds of chartreuse and a pound pf black for myself to experiment with.

OK -- just wanted to make sure that wasn't a typo.
