It is for the organisms that can be found there that worms eat cut grass, fruits, and plants.

Specifically, worms also feed upon dirt, garden vegetables, and ground litter. They follow the diet which they do because the above-mentioned food sources often serve as shelters for algae, bacteria and fungi. Vegetables hold a special attraction for worms as sources of anti-oxidants.

What do worm's eat?

Worms have tiny mouths and will take extremely small bits out of things like bacteria, fungi and protozoa. The love organic matter such as plants, fruit, compost heaps of cut grass, potato peelings and decaying animals. When the food is too large for their mouths they moisten it to make it soft and suck it in. Worms have no teeth and the "gizzard" does all the work. Grains of sand or soil are ingested along with the food and a grinding process occurs. When the food leaves the worm's gizzard, it goes into the intestine and is dissolved and absorbed into the worm's blood. You cannot cut their head off earthworms or cut them in the middle to try to grow two worms. Cutting off any vital organs will kill them. However, if you cut the tail end off a worm (not advisable), then they will grow another one. Worms are essential in gardens because they keep the soil soft, aerated, and full of nutrients which are good for your plants. When it rains hard, worms will surface to the top of the soil if there isn't enough airspace for them to get oxygen.


Why does grass growth faster when only a little is cut?

Because the grass plants don't require as much energy to renew their growth as when they are cut a bit shorter. If grass was cut quite short, it takes more energy reserves and more effort for the grass to renew its growth to the point of maturity.


Do worms kill other worms?

No, Worms have tiny mouths and will take extremely small bits out of things like bacteria, fungi and protozoa. The love organic matter such as plants, fruit, compost heaps of cut grass, potato peelings and decaying animals. When the food is too large for their mouths they moisten it to make it soft and suck it in. Worms of course have no teeth and the "gizzard" does all the work. The grains of sand or soil will be ingested in with the food along with moisture (must like birds and chickens) and a grinding process occurs. When the food leaves the worm's gizzard is goes into the intestine and is dissolved and absorbed into the worm's blood which also keeps the worms moist and strong. Added tips about worms: You cannot cut their head off or cut them in the middle and they will grow into two worms. Cutting of any vital organs will kill them. However, if you cut the tail off a worm (not advisable) then they will grow another one. Worms are essential in gardens because they keep the soil soft and full of nutrients which are good for your plants. When it rains hard worms will surface to the top of the soil and although just in theory it could be there are chemicals that go into the earth or there isn't enough oxygen so they surface.
