(2) There are many reasons that can cause maggots to grow in the soil, such as the earthworms dying, the soil being too humid, uncomposted feces in the soil, flies laying eggs in the soil, etc.

2. How to deal with the small worms inside farmed earthworms?

3. How to deal with maggots in the soil when raising earthworms?

4. There are many white worms in the soil where earthworms are raised. Are they harmful to humans and earthworms? What should we do?

80% of the time your earthworms are reproducing.

Small earthworms are short white worms that are like threads. Keep the humidity high. If they are not in the shape of threads, it may be that other worm eggs were laid in the soil and hatched before you raised the earthworms. It doesn't matter, these worms will help digest the humus. But if they run around and leave your breeding container, you can draw a circle around the container with mothballs, and those that can't fly will not leave there. Never throw mothballs into the soil.

5. What should I do if there are a lot of small earthworms when raising earthworms?

The earthworms are reproducing. The small earthworms are short white worms like threads. Make sure to maintain humidity.

Although they are hermaphrodites, they still need to mate for fertilization. During mating, the front ventral surfaces of the two insect bodies match each other in opposite directions of the head and tail. In most cases, the male reproductive pore of one individual is aligned with the spermathecae pore of the other individual. At this time, the annulus can secrete mucus to connect the insect bodies together, and the bristles on the body surface also connect the insect bodies.

A few days after mating, the eggs begin to mature. At this time, the annulus secretes mucus outward and surrounds the annulus. After solidification, it forms a cocoon tube. The annulus then secretes albumin, and the mature eggs are discharged into it.

6. How to remove flying insects in the soil where earthworms are raised?

It is quite common to see small flying insects when raising earthworms. This is usually because too much food is put in, causing it to rot inside, attracting some flies and other flying insects to lay eggs.

It is almost impossible to completely eliminate them. The only way to reduce their numbers is to control their food. Each feeding must be finished within 4-5 days. Also, do not feed them dairy products, oily meat, etc., as these are more likely to attract flying insects.

7. How to prevent and control parasites in earthworm farming?

The main parasites in earthworm farming are tapeworms, nematodes, cluster worms and parasitic flies. The following measures are mainly taken for prevention and control: 1. Livestock and poultry manure must be fully decomposed and fermented, and high temperature must be used to kill parasite eggs and larvae in the manure.

2. Earthworm farms should establish a product inspection system to prevent earthworm products with parasites from leaving the factory; earthworms cannot be introduced without passing the inspection to prevent the spread of parasites. 3. The staff of livestock and poultry farms should pay attention to the food hygiene of livestock and poultry, conduct regular censuses of livestock and poultry, and promptly treat livestock and poultry with parasites, or take measures such as isolation and breeding.

8. What should I do if maggots grow inside earthworms?

Generally, maggots in earthworm soil can be removed by changing the soil. In order to avoid maggots in the soil, it is necessary to ensure that the cow dung in the earthworm soil has been completely fermented and mature. It is also necessary to ensure that the soil moisture is appropriate, and the dead earthworms should be picked out and disposed of in time. Rotten bananas and rotten apples should not be thrown into the breeding box. At the same time, the breeding box needs to be placed in a cooler place to avoid direct sunlight to provide a suitable living environment for the earthworms.
