I wonder if the bear eats earthworms and crustacean larvae. Being recently in the garden, I dug a compost pit, which I dug in the spring. So in the spring there were about 30 larvae of presumably cetonias. and the rhinos. I dug through 1.5 cubic meters of compost, which had already rotted by this time (in search of a rhino). Surprisingly, there was not a single crunch larva, they did not all come out this year, after sifting the soil from the lumpy pit, only 5 worms were also found at most, although I went deeper by 1.5 m. The question arises, did they go for the winter (really so deep?) or still the bear eats everything that gets in its way. Since there were more than fifty bears in the compost pit.

this is not an idle question . my house and vegetable garden is on the sand the garden is thirty centimeters covered with imported soil.More than 10 years ago, wanting to raise the ground level and at the same time make paths through the garden, I dug ditches with a bayonet and covered them with sawdust. After 2 years in these sawdust bred a bear in incredible quantities eats everything and potatoes and seedlings of tomatoes or peppers from 100 bushes to eat 100 is not a question at all .If everything is clear with vegetables. What about fruit trees ? on the sand they do not grow I practice like this: I choose a cube of sand, fill up the earth and sow an apple or pear tree if you stand with a hose for the whole summer, then after 3 years it blooms , and then the pit becomes insufficient and the tree ceases to bear fruit . Here I think so and if in the following years as if the pit to expand the sand to choose and take out and pour but not the ground and sawdust is still organic (sawdust free) the bear will breed this is understandable but will it eat the roots of trees I personally think that no, let it loosen and eats worms Who has thoughts about this ??
