Company is fraudulent in their sales of worm products. Company sells pure worm castings plus worm egg material. The issue is that this product then has a bunch of sticks contained in it. This is neither worm castings, nor is it worm egg material. The company claims that sticks are worm egg material, and that it can't be screened away from the worm eggs. The issue is that their product clearly describes what worm egg material is, and in nowhere does it state the possible presence of uncomposted organics such as sticks. When selling things for agriculture, it is important that these contain the ingredients that are listed.

Thank you for your feedback. We apologize that the Worm Castings Plus Worm Egg Material product was not what you were expecting. This is a new product and it is unlike any other on the market as it not only contains our Pure Worm Castings but also what we call worm egg material. The packaging states that Worm Egg Material consists of tiny ***** of soil and worm eggs as well as organic bedding.
While we are able to harvest completely pure worm castings using our proprietary manufacturing process, unfortunately there is no way to have a material that consists of purely worm eggs as the eggs are similar in shape and size to the other leftover pieces of bedding debris you see present in the worm egg material, and they will all come through the same sifting screen. This is why we created the term worm egg material to describe this ingredient. These small pieces can be soil,composted earthy materials, silica or even small pebbles. All of which are present in the earthy bedding the worms live in, and none of which are harmful in any way to any soil you intend to grow plants in.
This product is intended to be used only as a fertilizer by adding it near the root zone of anything you are planting and mixing it in with the soil around your plants,the same as you would our Pure Worm Castings, but with the added benefit of the worm eggs as any worms that hatch will adapt to the environment and benefit the soil in a multitude of ways. Is is not intended to be used to hatch worms in captivity to be raised for other purposes, and only our Pure worm castings should be used to create a casting tea.
Again, we apologize for any misunderstanding. We appreciate your feedback.
