bros,

i just bought some LR and they are so smelly. I put them into a pail atm.

What should i do?

How can i get rid of the smell?

I also found some worms (long a bit fat type) on the LR.

Should i get rid of them?

Thanks in advance for the reply :)

hmmm most likely uncured LR. soak them in saltwater, put a air stone or two. wait for a week of 2. the smell should be gone.

for worms... you decide, some people keep it as part of cleaning crews but some think they are pest. well.. most of them think they are pest actually. :lol:

If a man could beat his own fantasy. Then to only breed in captivity. Then its pointless.

Genesis 1:20

And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that has life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven. And God created great whales, and every living creature that moves, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good. And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth. And the evening and the morning were the fifth day.
