Earthworms from my garden...

Where would be an ideal place to keep worms that I dig up in my garden? I feel inhumane keeping them in a plastic bag.

I keep mine in the bottom of the fridge in a small plastic tub with a snap on lid. Its half full of damp earth with some tiny air holes in the top. The Earthworms I keep in there seem to survive indefinitely.

That's good to know...I've always just gone out and dug for worms as needed, but that can be difficult in the colder months.
