    Where do worms come from?

    We moved a few scaffolding boards the other week that had only been in that pile about a week.
    They'd been clean when they came off the lorry - (well not muddy or wormy anyway).

    There were tons of worms on them - not teeny tiny ones. Even on the ones three or four off the ground.

    Do worms like climbing or what?

    they are amazing things,if you set up a composter on concret they will find it,perhaps its the smell of new material,or the damp,not wet places,

        There was a time that a worm was considered a necessity to aid weight loss.

            They have found my polytunnel soil and yet the earth around it is packed hard clay. There are loads in my leafmold and I've been placing them inside the poly to keep pulling matter down. I love worms! Someone should make a badge...

              Interesting (??) fact about worms, they aren't male or female, but both ie any two random worms can mate and bring baby worms into this world.

              Some of us live in the past, always talking about back then. Some of us live in the future, always planning what we are going to do. And, then there are those, who neither look behind or ahead, but just enjoy the moment of right now.

              Which one are you and is it how you want to be?

                          Worms are amazing creatures; I'll second that! A home made wormery is a wonderful thing to have.

                              Alison is right (of course), they are Hermaphrodites, as are slugs and snails, I believe. Worms is good, but you can keep t'others...
