I saw an ad promoting
a substance to rid lawn owners
of unsightly worm castings.
Worm castings are likely
one of the most valuable substances
by weight
on this planet.
It is the king of fertilizers.
If you find unsightly worm castings
on your lawn,
treat it like the gold it is.
Carefully move the worm castings
if you don’t like them where they are.
Or sell them.
A gardener would happily
buy your worm castings.
So why would someone position
worm castings
as a problem?
They want to sell
the earthworm killing/detracting substance.
They also want to sell
fertilizer.
Because the lawn owner
will soon need it
once she has rid the lawn
of all its natural fertilizers.
When someone points out a problem
you didn’t know you had,
ask yourself IF it is truly a problem
and how that person/entity
benefits from ‘solving’ it.
