I can't believe lsw is doing this to us!!!
He scrambled the worms with his bare fingers to wake them up!! I thought I was going to gag.

Advice to those who haven't done it:
1, do not try to transfer more than one worm at a time with your forceps.
2, do not stand near lsw during the demo.
3, do not touch the bag of soda lime with your hands. The worms have been all over it.
4, do not sit near the dish of worms.
5, choose the big, fat ones so that you finish your experiment early.
6, wear lab coat for your safety.

Give me mice, give me organs. No worms, no insects please.

I can't stand the way they writhe when you pick them up with the forceps! ><

That was possibly the hardest TAS I did - had to force myself to squeeze 50 worms and watch them squirm...

XD i had mealworms as pets before.... like TONNES of them in a skippy peanut butter jar... and some of them turned to beetles and flew away.... but most died XDDDDDD i think dead mammals/birds/amphibians/reptiles/fish are much more sicker than these invertibrates la!!
