Learn the tricks of keeping red worms fresh in one minute! 3 methods are still for you to choose, and they can be kept for half a month

The method is very simple. Find a larger potato (or carrot), split it in the middle, hollow out the inside with a spoon, put the red worms in, cover it with the other half and secure it with a toothpick, then wrap it with a wet towel and put it in a cool place.

This method is the most common and easy to operate. Some anglers reported that they could store the red worms for a month, but some said that it would not work and they died in a few days.

The key issue still lies in the indoor temperature. It must be cool and humid, and the surrounding temperature cannot be too high.

2. Use earthworm boxes to preserve food

A box of earthworms in a fishing tackle shop is only two or three yuan, which is much cheaper than red worms. If you really can't afford it, you can just pick up two from the river.

After preparing the earthworm box, prepare a sponge, dip it in water and place it at the bottom of the box, then put the red worms on it, then take another sponge and dip it in water, place it on top of the red worms, and finally cover it with a lid and place it in a cool place.

What if you can't find a sponge? You can use a paper towel instead. Take a few pieces of paper and wet them all.

Open the lid every two days and if the paper towel is dry, sprinkle some water on it. You can also put some fruit peels at the bottom of the box so that the red worms will be fatter.

3. Soil + tea leaves to raise red worms

Prepare a box, the earthworm box mentioned above will do, then go to the river to get some silt, remove the impurities in the mud, dry it a little, then add some leftover tea leaves, and then put the red worms in.

Of course, the soil used to hold earthworms can also be used, but it is best to wash it several times with water to remove the impurities inside.

Finally, let me say some issues that need attention:

It is best to store red worms in a refrigerator. Even if you use the above method, you need to keep the temperature constant.

In addition, you should check them after each use and pick out the dead ones in time, otherwise the healthy red worms will also be infected with bacteria. This is the same as earthworms. If one dies, all will die.

The dead red worm's body is black, and the half-dead body is soft and no longer curled.
