I suppose that's really a question for John Needham, but I'll try to
answer for him: "Spontaneous generation."

One of my vermiculite cutting boxes is about 3 [maybe 4] years old. I
just raked it up. There are lots of worms--lots--but the medium has
become very cloddy. And since the bed is at least 3 years old, it's
probably time to replace the whole thing, So, I'm going to dump the
"cloddy" vermiculite [with it trove of worms] into my potting mix and
replace the medium with fresh vermiculite.
