Earthworms live in the ground because it provides them with: 1) Moisture, to stop them drying out and dying 2) Food, which they obtain by eating the soil and digesting the organic material 3) Protection against predators e.g birds 4) there are tiny holes so they can breath and get a bit of sunshine.
