Compost Worms: Blue Nose Worms

Blue Nose is a trade name used only by Tommy Toposil and sister company WonderWormsUK for a species originally found in woodland and rich organic farmland usually near to woodland.

Charlie Denham found that these Blue Nosed worms evolved over several generations into the worms we have today that will thrive on almost any biodegradable food waste that has once lived and died.

The Blue Nose worm has been examined by biology experts who have devised the latin name Eisenia Hortensis and also Dendrobeaena Veneta. Whatever its true name, it remains a fantastic worm that will just about eat any waste from farms, kitchens and gardens, and is therefore the worm we recommend for all domestic wormeries.
