This factsheet offers information on the identification and management of various flatworms that may be found in North Carolina.
This factsheet covers the description, biology, and management of the jumping earthworm, a common pest in North Carolina gardening.
Earthworms can turn food scraps into a soil amendment called vermicompost — worm castings — which increases plant growth and reduces attacks by plant diseases and pests. Vermicomposting is easy, involves little work, and can be done indoors or outdoors. All you need is a container, bedding, worms, and worm food.
This educational resource for children aged 9-12 explains how to make a composting bin to house earthworms and recycle food scraps.
