Highlighted Reviews
"Worms were the correct count and alive. Very small, so be sure you read the description. This is what we needed."
"The worms are in good condition, but the plastic container holding them is bent almost in half and then taped up. The shipping box was fine, which means that the container was purposely shipped that way. I had to move all the worms to a new container."
