What happens when worms die naturally? Do the send out a smell?

0

A. When worms die, they can put off an odor that alerts the other worms of danger and it can cause all the worms to die. But that generally occurs if they are in a small, confined space like a bait cup. If you are using fishing worms from a bait cup, carefully pull them out of the container. Or better yet, dump the container up-side-down in your hand and then pick out the worm you want and put the rest back in the container. When worms die in a compost bin or pile, you most likely won’t even notice them. They will dry up and look like a small stick.
