European nightcrawlers - Eisenia Hortensis

The European nightcrawler is rapidly becoming the ideal bait and live food worm. European nightcrawlers are not only the toughest and most active worms on the market, but are the only earthworm that can be used successfully in salt water. Nightcrawlers have been used for ice fishing in the frigid waters of Northwestern British Columbia, and have been found to be still active on the hook after 30 minutes in the water under 18" of ice! The nightcrawler is also a good food source for birds, turtles, reptilians, exotic pets, and small pond and aquarium fish. The European nightcrawler can be fed and cared for just like the redworm. (please read the section on Vermicomposting).

    SHIPPING WORMS IN SUMMER: As we enter into the higher temperatures of summer we are not always able to ship the worms due to their perishable nature. The extended forecast is not always reliable and can change quite a bit from day to day. The temperature not only needs to be favorable where you live but along the route the worms will be shipped from as well.

    We will not ship again until September to the following states: Arizona, New Mexico, Texas, Florida, Oklahoma, Louisiana, Nevada, and Utah. As for the rest of the continental United States, the exact ship date of your worms will depend upon the above stated conditions. If you cannot wait until the conditions are right please let us know and we will by happy to refund your money. Thank you for your patience and understanding!
