Storing Night Crawlers ???

[SkunkedAgain]

Thank you guys so much for all the great ideas... Right now I'm wondering if I can use a combo of all of the ideas... See if I can get my bait fridge so I can use it again, find a styrofoam cooler and fill it with a mix of good light soil and compost...cover with moist paper shreadings or leaves and remember not to return unused worms... I'm guilty of doing that and too often dead rotting worms is probably what starts the decay of my collection... I think I also need a bigger container or less worm density... I'll go catch 6-7 dozen and try to keep them in a gallon can so they are probably over crowded... Thank you guys very much for the ideas and help... I'll see if I can keep them for more than a week this next time... Later Jeff
