This is not surprising, since growing worms does not require high costs and has a good level of profitability. In addition, to develop such a business, it is not necessary to rent a special room, you can organize a mini-farm at home.

Worms for fishing have always been in price, the demand for them is both in summer and in winter, therefore, in terms of finances, this is an excellent choice for business.

Advantages of vermicultivation

• Ease of equipment. For breeding worms, you do not need to purchase expensive equipment, you can create it yourself.
• Reproduction speed. Individuals give offspring very quickly, so the business will be constantly active.
• High demand. Worms are always bought, this is due to the ability to fish all the year round.
• Insignificant expenses for doing business. From the businessman it is not required the big investments for the business beginning, and also for its maintenance.
• Wastelessness of production. For realization are not only individuals, but also fertilizers produced by them in the process of vital activity.

What worms to use?

There are several types of worms that are suitable for breeding:

• "prospector";
• Rainwater;
• Californian worm;
• Dung;
• Flour worms ;
• Dendroben (worm).

The latter species was bred specifically for catching fish. Worms are quite large and fleshy, ideally suited as a profit.

Features of Dendrobaena veneta

Dendroben worm has a color from violet to olive, a red or brown hue, with pale yellow furrows. The body can consist of 26-32 segments, and the tail toward the end thickens.

The worm is not afraid of negative temperatures, so it is easy to grow it in places with an unfavorable climate.

Reproduction of worms

Dendrobena veneta, like any other worms, hemophrodite, that is, there are neither males nor females in the family. The most active mating time for individuals is early spring, when conditions are most favorable. They can be created at home, and in such a way that mating will be possible year-round.

After mating with worms, cocoons are laid, which ripen for two months, after the expiration of this period, full-fledged young individuals appear.

It must be remembered that the laying of cocoons is not possible if all conditions are not met. Also Dendroben (worm) will not increase the offspring if there are too many individuals in the enclosed space.

Determine the willingness of the animal for mating can be on the swollen belt on the body. Worms can mate at any size, but growth genes are an important component. For this reason, it is advisable to select individuals with a weight of 1.5 g. With proper care, Dendroben can reach 7 grams.

Conditions for breeding worms

In order for business to develop in the right direction, it is necessary to observe the following conditions for keeping worms:

• To ensure darkness;
• Provide individuals with a quality wet and breathable substrate without adding any chemical impurities.

Substrate is the main element to take care of. Worms that appear in the substrate must remain in it until the moment of realization. Change of habitat can lead to the death of individuals. Therefore, it is necessary to have a sufficient amount of substrate in the reserve. Of course, his change to a new one is possible, but for this you need to have sufficient experience.

To grow a sufficient number of individuals, it is necessary to maintain the optimal temperature regime in the chervatnitsa - + 9-30 degrees. It should also monitor the level of soil moisture, it should not be more than 85%.

As the population grows, individuals should be moved to another chervotnitsu, otherwise, as was said, reproduction will stop.

After increasing the level of compost in the substrate, it is necessary to perform loosening of the soil not more than twice a week. This provides access to oxygen.

Do not assume that the cultivation of worms is an activity of the simplest. This case must be approached with responsibility and seriousness.

To start breeding Dendroben, you can use several options:

• You can buy cocoons and put them in the ready-made substrate. Thus, worms will be initially adapted to your conditions of detention.
• Buy a family Dendroben 3-5 generations. However, you need to be sure that you have the Dendroben worm. The price for such families is about 3500 rubles.

An inexperienced person is difficult, even almost impossible, to distinguish one kind of worm from another. Therefore, it is most reasonable to buy individuals from experienced vermi-planters.

How to build a worm?

It is best to cost a chervatnitsu on a suburban site, but everywhere there are difficulties. To build a compost hole, in principle, everyone can do.

Worms for fishing are the purest protein, and therefore mice, mice, rats, and bear eat them willingly. If such animals get to your offspring, then losses can not be avoided, and, therefore, it is necessary to provide good protection.

Also, the danger for worms is groundwater. Therefore, when choosing a location for the compost pit, you need to make sure that there are no sources of water, otherwise they will die if they enter the pit.

It is advisable to place the compost hole in the shade so that the sun's rays do not heat it.

It is also worth taking care that the pit is safe from falling rain and snow.

It is necessary to understand that the more individuals are in the worm, the less Dendroben (the worm is quite amiable in this respect) will be the size. With an overabundance of worms in the area, they grow smaller, so it is very important to move them to another compost pit.

A variant of a quaternary cell

• We choose the optimal place for the location of the queen cell.
• At the bottom of the pit, we lay the drainage from the rubble with a layer of 20 cm.
• We lay a galvanized mesh with a 10 mm cell on the bottom and close it with the inner sides of the pit.
• On the perimeter it is necessary to install reinforcement under the walls of the mother cell from the armature of 12 mm.
• We lay the walls with silicate brick. The walls rise 10 cm above the ground, the pit itself into the depth of 1 meter.
• On the upper end of the wall we fix the net for protection against pests and strengthen with a 2 cm thick screed.
• In the middle of the pit in the wall we install 2 fittings from below and 2 under the top at a distance of 2 cm.
• We install a partition of 3 mm, which will divide the mother in half.
• At the bottom of the pit lay a screed 2 cm thick with a slope to the partition 3-5 cm.
• In the screed we drill 8-10 through holes of 1 cm. To determine the places where it is necessary to make holes, it is necessary to pour water on the bottom and see where the water will accumulate, there should be holes.

Dendroben (worm) does not require special care, so growing individuals is not so difficult, the main thing is to create all the necessary conditions, and then your business will soon begin to bring good money.
