FW: Worm harvesting

["Ron Golland" <see62 at ync_net>]

I am a newbie to the hobby and was having trouble harvesting White and
Grindal worms for my small batch of fish.
I saw a tip on the WAKO web page for harvesting microworms using a piece of
paper in the media so  I tried a piece of fiberglass window screen on my two
worm cultures , it worked like a charm.
I use a small piece of screen. Run it under the faucet to get it wet, then
shake off most of the water.
Just lay this on top of the media and sprinkle on the baby cereal. Next day
the wire is full of worms that you can rinse off in a cup of water.
This method lets the media breath and the screen size can be adjusted to the
size of the harvest that you need.
This sure beats my old method, I was picking out the White worms one by one.
