Pound for pound, Red Worms are almost certainly faster composters. That being said, Euros are definitely fun to keep and they produce fantastic castings! Jeff - thanks for sharing that. Really interesting! I may try adding some Euros to my various outdoor compost gardens - maybe that will be their ideal habitat! B Kim – don’t let the size fool you.

The soil I have here is a heavy clay even. The way it looks is if I would like to go fishing with the euros I just have to put a board on the ground or a peace cardboard for a few days and I will have all the Euros I need to go fishing. Jeff Hi Bentley

While working around my yard this year I have found out that the Euros are soil dwelling worms as well, I have been doing some building this year, And I am not very good at picking up after myself, after a week I decide it is time to pick up the left over wood from last weeks building. under each board I find a handful of Euros, 30 feet away from the worm beds that are in a shed and about the same distance away from any flower beds that we used worm casting with the egg cocoons in it.
