Eisenia fetida, commonly known as red wiggler or redworm, are small, composting earthworms widely used in vermiculture. They thrive in organic-rich environments, consuming decaying plant matter like kitchen scraps and leaves. Cultivating E. fetida involves maintaining a moist, aerated bedding of compost, such as shredded paper or coconut coir, where they breed and feed. These worms reproduce quickly and are prized for their ability to accelerate composting through their efficient digestion and excretion processes. They require moderate temperatures (15-25°C), avoiding extremes, and prefer slightly acidic to neutral pH levels (6.0-7.0). Regular monitoring of moisture and food levels sustains a healthy population and effective compost production.
