BENEFITS
Find out more on Vermicast & the benefits of Worm Hit fertilisers
Worm Casting produced Agricultural & Commercial Fertilisers
The story behind our extremely powerful organic fertilisers originates from vermicast (worm castings) – the nutrient and microorganism-rich castings produced from worms through a process called vermicomposting.
Utilising a uniquely developed system these castings are able to be pelletised (sold by Wormco as Worm Hit Pellets), granulated (sold by Wormco as Worm Hit Fines), and formed into compressed bricks (sold by Wormco as Worm Hit Bricks).
The manufacturing of Worm Hit takes specially produced worm castings and infuses these castings with an organic compound that both stabilises the product and accelerates microbe growth we activated.
Wormco also completes our organic fertiliser offering with the Wormco Liquid fertiliser; a uniquely produced worm liquid concentrate, packed with plant available macro and micronutrients.

Worm Hit Bricks are a slow release, high microbial colony forming, biological fertiliser in a 1.2kg compressed brick form. These bricks have been cleverly designed to be broken in half for greater control on usage.
Worm Hit Bricks are perfect for new plantings of citrus, avocado, and almond trees, and any tree in which can aid from accessing a steady nutrient source to help turbo boost the root structure of the plant. Trees planted with Worm Hit Bricks grow faster and stronger and this will help to get plants into commercial production.

Citrus, fruit, nut, avocado and other large tree plants: Add 1 brick per tree to the hole during planting (break in half if suitable)
Smaller trees and shrubs: Add half a brick per plant to the hole during planting

Wormco Liquid Fertiliser is a concentrated organic liquid fertiliser excreted by worms in the vermicomposting process.
The key to this concentrate is the worm’s food source, which contains a nutrient blend of organic plant and ocean sources with crushed minerals, seaweed, fish, lime, rock phosphate, and other natural nutrients, which ultimately convert to a powerful & microbe-rich plant food.
Application rates
For general applications via a sprayer, seed inoculant, liquid injection or drip systems combine 5L (5%) of Wormco Liquid Fertiliser with 95L (95%) water.
For crops, apply Wormco Liquid Fertiliser at germination and growth stages and support with Worm Hit Pellets for optimum results. For pasture and lawns, apply Wormco Liquid Fertiliser at seasonal changes, or when fertilisation is required.
For pasture and lawns apply Wormco Liquid Fertiliser at seasonal changes, or when fertilisation is required.

Crop & Plant Suitability
Worm Hit Pellets, Worm Hit Bricks, Worm Hit Fines, and Wormco Liquid Fertiliser are suitable for use on all commercial crops and trees, wholesale produced plants and domestic crops and non-food baring plants.
Unlike some chemically manufactured fertilisers, our products, even if over applied, will not burn the plant or its root system due to the natural activation process of the vermicast. This results in the fertiliser making the supply of nutrients available to the plant as the plant requires them. This is in contrast to a rapid breakdown and oversupply of nutrients when the plant is in its infancy.
