How to Make a Worm Trap to Collect Composting Worms from Your Local Environment

This is such a great idea!!!! I will try this over here in Iceland.

🤙🏽

Thanks sir l want to learn more about worms and casting

So what if I don’t have mustard greens?

Thank you..

That seems too easy compared to a lot of other videos I've watched. Very cost-affiant and using easy-to-get things like heck I got leaves. So I got a bucket and started soaking some leaves... I hope this works because I hated killing those last worms. Thanks for the video.

Are flies attracted to this? I just started composting my kitchen scraps and there's SO many flies that hang out at the bucket I use. I'm new to gardening and don't mind some bugs but swarms of flies are not something I can get used to at the moment.🫨🤢

Thank you so much for sharing and success

I would recommend avoiding composting any material treated with Bleach (pure white paper), Glue (often found in cardboard), and/or Ink.

Blah, Blah, Blah!!!

Does the container with the leaves have holes or what is the filtration for the bottom part?

In Kitimat British Columbia, Canada, when ever it rains out I just walk around the streets and pick up the worms and put them in my garden and green house.

Thank you from Texas

I don't see the trap results

Rabbit coops or bird coops are full under the cages too. Just find a breeder!

Use of factory made fertilizers spoiled soil allover the world. It has become careful, herculean task to get agriculture output. Flowers lost their natural cent smell due to pollution. Sweetness of fruits is not like earlier. Humans have to o work very very hard to again retrieve quality soil. I do not know about other countries but in India, our original well developed replaced by western methods spoiled mother nature.

You’re b u t get

Thanks a lot, will do it 🙂

I don't see any worms. All I see is some guy claiming he knows what he's talking about.

You didn’t let people see any worm in your compost containers . Is that truth.? If is truth why did not you show worm have been in black buckets ?

Do you know Vince Mina...???

If you want the biology in good numbers you need to add some kind of manure for your worm bin.

I just happened to watch this video, and noticed that I had the same bucket as your using. I then was at my friends place and saw he had 1 of the exact same ones, & he is on board with my crazy soil adventures, and gave me the bucket. I already have a skid composter half full, building it up fairly quick, and I just started it before winter, so adding a bucket of free relocated local worms will get it even more rocking and rolling. Thx. 🇨🇦👊🏻👨🏻‍🏭⚡💖🙏

good video... I'll try it

Man thanks for the tutorial

Look under dry cow patties - lots of wrigglers under them lol

Do you add molded coffee to help them chew ?

🤙🏽🤙🏽

I something similar. Spread cow manure on the ground in the edge of the woods where it stays cool, damp and out of direct sunlight. Cover with black plastic then wait. After a week or so move plastic and dig. There will be worms in ever shovelful

From the beginning what is all the please give me the ingredients to make earth worms

Thanks.

One word—Biochar.

Super helpful! Much love 😁🤙🏼

wow so happy I stumbled across your site....exciting! Did I miss something? Did you poke holes in the first bucket? Headed to store to buy mustard, lol. Subscriber from NW Florida

You are a great teacher. I can't believe you don't have more subscribers yet.

What about collar greens can you use them for the worm vent

Aren’t you suppose to use red wiggler worms? One video I have watch mention earth worm live deep in soil because they love cool temperature, and the red wiggler live on surface. The more video I watch the more I am confused, I can’t find unanimity

I don't understand the point of the leaf litter bucket on top? Nightcrawlers get their food from the surface and pull it down into the soil below. Wouldn't you put the leaf litter on the bottom to collect the worms in?

Mahalo brah I'm living in Idaho now. I really need to catch some worms.

Great 👍

I m trying to follow so the two buckets have two distinct types of contents? U will find the worms in the top bucket? I guess I'm not flowing the point of the two buckets

I saw a gent that in spring breaks an egg and throws it into his pots or garden beds near root areas, then washes it in real well until the egg you're hosing in stops foaming. Then within a week or so you could see TONS of worms climbing into the drain holes of his garden pots.

So cool. Greetings from Central America. Thank you for sharing.

Seems logical and I believe it would work, but this video would be complete had you waited that 2 weeks to include showing us the ball of worms harvest you said would blow our minds.

I live in Southern Spain. My soil is like cement and in 12 years of living here I've only ever seen one worm and that was at my other house🤦🏻‍♀️😭. I'd love to have worms in my garden, especially in my veggie patch,but I don't think that this is going to work for me😭

man... this backtracking without finishing what your are talking about. way to much for me

Another place to get red worms is in a septic tank.

SO HOW DOES IT TRAP WORMS????

I stumbled upon this worm trick as well a few years ago. I grow everything in fabric pots and when I’m not using them I would put on ground with grass and would put kitchen scraps in them once a week. One day I went to dump one fabric pot out and out followed a bunch of worms. A light came on in my head and I knew my plants would be taken care of by the organic earth worm castings which is perfect for me because I don’t use any chemicals in my garden 👌🏾👌🏾.
