Where to buy night crawlers near me

You will love our wholesale European Nightcrawlers, they are also a great compost worm. 

This worm has many names, you will see these European nightcrawlers marketed as; Jumbo Red Worms, Panfish Worms, Trout Worms, Leaf Worms, Belgian Night Crawlers, Euro's, pan fish worms and several other names 

Our wholesale European Nightcrawlers (Eisenia Hortensis) are a larger cousin to the Red Wiggler, but smaller than the Canadian Nightcrawler (which can be TOO big), making them the ideal live bait pan fish worms. European nightcrawlers also tougher, stay alive longer and are much more active than other types of fishing worms. They are the only earthworm suitable for use as ice fishing bait; they will stay alive even after long periods of icy water submersion.

European Nightcrawlers are without a doubt the best bait worm on the market, and they make excellent pan fish worms. They are great for Sunfish, Bass, Trout and even Walleye!

You can keep these worms between 38 and 78 degrees with no problems, we do recommend refrigeration if you are going to store longer than 2 weeks. If you are looking for a tough fish catching bait worm, these guys are for you!

Our European Nightcrawlers are all bait size (2"- 3") not bed run. Many people sell the worms by bed run (all sizes mixed). You may get 250 large ones or 1,000 small worms. But most likely you will get a mix which makes it very difficult for counting large quantities.

This is ideal bait for fishing because you don’t have to refrigerate them to keep their fishing appeal.

European Nightcrawlers can also be used as a composting worm, they will grow longer and fatter than its cousin the Red Wiggler; they will eat their weight in food every day.

European Nightcrawlers like their soil more moist than the Red Worm and are not as prolific. The European Night Crawlers and the common Red Worm can coexist peacefully in a composting bin since they have similar characteristics. They are perfect for people who love to fish and garden.

Worm Care: European Night Crawlers must be removed from the bag they are shipped in and transferred into a new container with fresh bedding and stored at 60-80ºF.  They are shipped in enough bedding for shipping, not enough to live in.

They may lose some weight in shipping because they are shipped in dry bedding so the temps don't affect them too much.  Spray a little water on them and put them in fresh bedding when you receive them and they will gain their weight back real soon (2 - 4 days). Their bedding material serves as their food source.

For bedding, you can use chemical free peat moss, shredded paper and water. Add enough water until a few water drops drip when you squeeze it like a sponge.

You can feed them worm chow, or table scraps.
