Carpkit is based in Milton - you can't go visit any more, but you can collect in person if you want to save on shipping. And if it's not on the website - ask - Simon has a LOT of stuff!

I chose a relatively damp piece of ground with a mustard solution. One worm, and I'm not sure it was all that agitated(!). Probably worth a try again one the weather cools off a touch.
