Not sure how the greens keeper would feel about that. Best places I ever found was by driving around after a rain. They look like straw strewn on the road.. I just used a whisk broom to sweep them into a flat edge container. For some reason they seem to much faster than ever before:] It varies from course to course. The piles of processed compost from the worms at the entrance/exit of the holes is generally not appreciated by golfers on the fairways or greens. The greens in particular do not putt well with small piles of worm turds all over them. Worms generally do not do well on some courses because they are treated with herbicides and insecticides to eliminate the critters that could damage the grass. Unfortunately, they often take the worms as well. But, since most courses are well watered and fertilized they do not need the services of the worms to aerate and fertilize their grasses. Quote
Super User Fishing Rhino Posted January 17, 2016 Super User Posted January 17, 2016 Worm hunting. I remember those days. You could tell where to hunt on lawns by the piles of worm dung at the entrance to their tunnels. The more piles the better. Regarding flashlights. When your eyes get accustomed to the darkness, you want to look for worms at the outer edges of the circle of light, where it is dimmer. If you hit them with the bright center of the light they are extremely quick to scurry back into their burrow. The dim outer edge did not evoke the same reaction. When they were mating, you'd often get two worms for the price of one. As I recall, they'd "link" up in several places along their bodies. Quote
