Method and device for attracting and collecting earthworms |
摘要 |
An earthworm collecting device that is highly effective in causing earthworms to surface from their holes during the day time or at night and come to the surface. The device generates a rasping noise and a series of vibrations that resonate through the ground. These resonating vibrations cause the earthworms to surface which then allows for easy and rapid collection. |

1. An earthworm collection device wedged within soil comprising:
a. an applicator having a hand grip wherein the hand grip maintains the applicator securely wedged within the soil, a notched region having a series of equally-spaced notches less than 0.5 inches apart where all the notches are completely within an approximate 10 inch section along its longitudinal axis and having a one-piece tapered end where the tapered end is securely wedged within soil; and b. a striker wherein an approximate right angle interaction between the applicator and the striker generates a vibration that causes the worms to surface. |
