No, no, no. Not that kind! I have red wigglers! They have become a huge party of this household! They eat our compost for us, they are absolutely wonderful! Where we live, it is not a very good place to have an outdoor compost, so we have these wonderful little guys to help us in our quest for green living! They eat all of our left over vegetables that don't quite make it to the dinner table, and all the bits and ends that we normally wouldn't eat! In return for that, they give us some of the most wonderful compost, liquid and dirt! My plants are thanking me for it ;) They take up so little space (we have two bins right now, that live in the kitchen near the heater vent) and give us more then we could ask for! Do you like worms? I sure do, I miss them when we are away for days at a time!! Some people might say that the worms eat better then we do... I wouldn't be so sure though. This is the first year I have had them, and we will be using the fertilizer in our vegetable garden. We don't want to use chemicals in any way. We will also be using seaweed that we will have to collect at the beach, but it's been so miserable that we haven't been able to do that quite yet. That's Victoria weather for you.. :)
