Ordering worms online

[TWFairweather]

DO NOT ORDER FROM UNCLE JIM"S!!! You will be sorry if you do. I have ordered from them and I received red wigglers and blue worms. Blue worms are fragile and die easy. My order was contaminated with the blues. I have ordered from Bill Jacobson with Lakeshore Vermicomposting @ 920-905-1114 and was very pleased. Google his company. He sells red wigglers and European Night crawlers. I raise red wigglers for personal use and he was the best company that I have bought from. My $.02.

Thanks I'll check him out, the prices from uncle Jim's seemed high anyway. I've had good luck with rainbow mealworms.

Anyone try the red mealworms for fish.

The two bins I have now of red wigglers I actually stated by collecting them under logs, leaves, cardboard and whatever else got wet outside. Took about 9 months starting with maybe 200 to get large numbers but well worth it. They are really big and have been going strong for over 10 years. I think they have actually gotten bigger over time.

As for mealworms, last time I used them for bait I bought them from a local aquarium store. Were only $5 for 100 but that was many years ago.
