    Worm Shocker

    get the ground good and wet then run an extension cord from the house to your worm spot. take a wire from a lamp or toaster or some other electrical appliance and separate the two strands along with the insulation for a foot or so. clip one of these off and then wrap electrical tape around the wire at the shortened section to insulate it. strip the insulation from the long end for about 6 - 8 inches and wrap the bare wire around a long screwdriver or something else long, metal with an insulated handle. stick it into the ground and plug it in to your extension cord. touch the ground a couple feet from where you stuck it. you should feel a tingle. if you don't, unplug it and turn the plug over and do it again. it will have to be one of the un-polarized plugs. when you feel the tingle, step back for a couple minutes and watch. pretty soon the li'l critters will come wriggling out of the ground as fast as their little tails can push them. don't let the dog come nosing up to see what's going on. he'll get a big surprise.

    this DOES work. quite well by the way.
