Are red wigglers the worms that are displacing the native worms?

You may want to check the fishing section at Walmart. They have worms in tupperware in the fridge. My friend bought some when I first moved here to get the soil started. I remember reading that one of the types we got were not supposed to be released into the soil because of the native worm populations. Oops. If they escaped my current place, they would end up in someone else's garden or the graveyard so they shouldn't cause too much damage.

I am going to try this after I finish moving. I'll have lots of empty cardboard boxes and some bins...Do you think a kitty litter square bin would be too small?

I thought worms were worms....
