A new gardening question of the day appears every day of the year on the front page of Almanac.com. Below is the answer to one of the questions from our Gardening Questions and Answers Archive where you can find over 400 more gardening questions (with answers!).
Should any attempt be made to rid a lawn of angleworms? We have so many of them that our yard is difficult to mow.
Well, you could sell them for bait! An ordinary acre of land may contain as many as 53,000 angleworms. They prepare the soil to receive seeds, so, without them, many plants would become extinct. You can force angleworms to come above ground by pouring warm soapy water on the soil.
