They make burrows and tunnels that let water and nutrients reach plants root systems. Red wigglers are best at this for lawns and gardens because they work close to the surface. Whereas, night crawlers may go down five feet or more to find a home. This burrowing loosens the soil and aerates it.

Worms eat and digest their body weight every day, producing a 100% natural fertilizer know as castings.

The Red Worms' castings are:

• 5 Times Richer In Nitrogen
• 7 times richer in Phosphates
• 11 times richer in Potash than the average top soil

Vermicomposting benefits soil by

• improving its physical structure;
• enriching soil in micro-organisms, adding plant hormones such as auxins and gibberellic acid, and adding enzymes such as phosphatase and cellulase;
• attracting deep-burrowing earthworms already present in the soil;
• improving water holding capacity;
• enhancing germination, plant growth, and crop yield; and
• improving root growth and structure.
