  1. I am from the Lake Conroe area. I have earthworms under rocks and in my flower beds that I keep pretty wet. If you irrigate, you might have some you can dig up free.Those would be the best that are native to your area.


  2. You can buy them at a bait store nearby or buy them online.  But it really isn't necessary.  If your compost pile is on the ground, or if you drill holes in the bottom of your bin, the worms will come.  The only time you need to put worms in is if you have a bin that is sealed like a tumbler.  This site has them very reasonably priced (many places charge $20+) and it is in Texas, so it shouldn't be far from you.  http://www.marshallgrain.com/marshall/pr...

    Also, the article below gives composting tips if you are interested in composting without a tumbler.

  4. any place by a lake that sells fishing bait will have worms.

  5. you can usually buy earth worms anywhere that sells fish bait ! or dig them in your yard for free
