To actual and potential worm enthusiasts.

Here's a list of worm sites that have information, stuff to
spend money on or whatever.

I highly recommend folks who want to start in vermiculture
to explore the first web site called "oldgrowth" in depth.

This is because several reasons.

The internet is full of scam artists and the vermiculture
field has several scams.

The buy back scam. This scam promises to buy back the worms
you grow. Check with the newsgroup on the "oldgrowth" web
page prior to entering into one of these schemes.

The complete grower package. There are some good growing
packages. There a some scam growing packages. Again, check
with the group on old growth.

The red worm package. There are many different "RED WORMS"
in existence. There only a few species that are worth
buying. Make sure the red worms you buy are from a credible
source and are the worm you want for what you want to do.
Some undesirable "red worms" can compete with the good red
worms and you'll never be able to get rid of them. They can
actually move from the now worthless worm bed to good beds
like a virus.

When in doubt check with the worm group and especially take
time to read their archives. Excellent growing, breed, scam
and other info there. You can spend hours and still be
getting good info.

(Let me know if any of these links are dead.)
