Also known as Indian Blue Worm, Composting Worm, Blue Earthworm, Indian Blue
Indian blue worms are highly active, tropical earthworms famous for their rapid digestion of organic matter and deep iridescent sheen. They thrive in warm, high-humidity environments, moving with a fast, erratic thrashing motion when disturbed. While widely cultivated for vermicomposting, they are notorious escape artists that will migrate en masse during sudden drops in barometric pressure or temperature.
