- Compost worms live in organic matter, not just anywhere!
- Compost worms and garden worms are not the same species.
Careful, don't put your little Willys in the audience! The series Scènes de ménages, on M6, gave a playful nod to earthworms that made us laugh a lot. Seeing earthworms on screen at prime time is not something you turn down.
Earthworms, the new stars of the small screen?
Long overlooked, earthworms are increasingly in the spotlight. People talk about their role in the soil, about vermicomposting, about zero waste… And when such a popular series picks up on them, it's proof that our Willys have become part of everyday life in France.
Where do compost worms really live?
Joking aside, our worms have very specific needs. Compost worms, from the Eisenia family, live in decomposing organic matter: dead leaves, manure, compost… or a wormery. They like moisture, darkness and mild temperatures.
They are not the same as the earthworms you find when digging in the garden, which live deeper in the soil. To understand it all, read our page which type of worms for your wormery.
