WHY SHOULD YOU USE RED WORMS AND
WORMPOOP OR WORM TEA?
Using red worms for composting, also know as vermiculture composting, is the process of utilizing red worms
to decompose organic yard and food waste, turning that waste into a natural fertilizer called wormpoop or worm
castings. Worm castings add beneficial organisms, nutrients and minerals to the soil that sustain
healthy plant life and vital plant growth. These micro-organisms and soil fauna help break down organic
materials and convert nutrients into a more available food form for plants. Red worms castings and worm tea
work to improve soil structure, texture, and aeration as well as increasing water-holding capacity in the
soil. Plants grow stronger and have deeper root systems for better drought tolerance and disease
resistance.
Studies have shown that as food passes through the worm's body, the worms have the amazing ability to eliminate
pathogens and carcinogens in the soil. Castings mixed with soil provides a natural organic fertilizer
and a tremendous source of nutrients for plants that dramatically improves the texture and fertility of soil.
This replaces valuable nutrients taken out of the soil when fruit and vegetables are harvested.
Worm tea is not made from the worms themselves, it is created as moisture builds in the worm bed and filters
through the castings. The worm tea is very concentrated in liquid form. A little goes a long
way. Worm tea is for indoor and outdoor plants and great in the garden.
