having checked my compost heap i have found thousands upon thousands of white thin , like tape worms. what are they, and what purpose do they serve?

[coccinelle]

It's the worms which are decomposing everything down into compost. You can buy these worms in gardening centres to do that job.

[thugulike]

I have red worms in mine.

[fuggy]

i have the red also, any chance that they could be young ones?

[boxtops]

No, they are different. I have red only, hundreds of 'em. They are good stuff.

[fuggy]

thank you all for your input, i checked them today and the have gone, underground i think

[boxtops]

Mine come and go - sometimes they are all round the lid of the bin, other times they are buried in the stuff.
