    In my compost heap I find most worms under the banana skins, so perhaps some over-ripe bananas is a good feed for them

    High temperatures in a fresh compost heap will kill worms (actually I expect they will just move out as temperature increases) but an "old", colder, heap should be teeming with them (and if not you could add them)
