they have definite Hours
typically they (canadian night crawlers or lumbricus terrestries)
emerge from their burrows at somewhere between 9-11 pm

putting anything red over a flashlight will make it a worm light
and you have to approach them in stealth mode quietly.
any thumping on the ground will send then down
and your right a damp warmer night is best
heavy rains are not always the best time...
i have local spots Phil so unless your sitting on the motherload
the cost of travel these days is a big consideration.
i am looking to gather many for the green house bed
that i am still building.... 4' feet by 75' by 24 'inches deep
