I have a sizeable cultrue outside. If you place a piece of burlap on the top and then spread some food on top of the burlap, say corn meal or oatmeal, the worms will come up through the burlap to get it. Lift the burlap and the worms come with it. Of course, it takes some time for the worms to move through the burlap, but if you leave it their and keep food on it, you should always be able to harvest some easily. Since burlap tends to degrade after awhile, you may be able to find some plastic mesh that works better. Dean Nelson den0@lehigh.edu
