TerraThrive™ Worms

Available in 3lb, 6lb and 10lb boxes

TerraVesco has been providing red wiggler worms (Eisenia fetida) to home
gardeners for nearly 30 years. Our business is all about worms and the nutrients
and microbial richness of their castings.

There are more than 2700 species of worms on the planet, and red wigglers are the
very best for composting food and garden waste. They are voracious eaters. Red
wigglers consume up to half their body weight in food scraps on a daily basis. They
are extremely hardy, can tolerate a wide range of temperatures and are easy to care
for. They reproduce more quickly than larger worm species. You can expect to
double your red wiggler worm population every 90 days or so.

Red wiggler worms live along the surface of the soil in compost, or areas with
rotting/decaying vegetation. They prefer warm and moist environments with a
ready supply of fresh compost material, making them well suited for the shallow box
conditions of a standard worm bin. They live in colonies and can handle high
density. We estimate that we typically have roughly 5000 red wigglers per cubic
foot living in our worm bins.

We sell worms by the pound. There are approximately 1000 worms per pound. We
recommend 1 pound of worms for each square foot of your worm bin. Most home
worm bins are 3 square feet or more. Remember, red wigglers reproduce quickly
and your worm population should double every 90 days or so until the density is
limited by the size of your bin and the frequency and size of feedings.

  • TerraThrive Worms, 3 pound box: $26.00 per pound – $78.00 plus tax and shipping
  • TerraThrive Worms, 6 pound box: $24.50 per pound – $147.00 plus tax and shipping
  • TerraThrive Worms, 10 pound box: $23.50 per pound – $235 plus tax and shipping

We take orders up until 12:00 noon PDT/PST on Fridays. We ship UPS 2 day
guaranteed delivery on Tuesday of the following week to assure weekday delivery.
All deliveries are signature required. We guarantee LIVE delivery of TerraThrive
Worms. Adverse weather conditions (overly hot or cold) can delay shipment until
weather conditions improve. We want your red wigglers to arrive happy and
healthy!
