 Maybe a silly question, how can you tell the difference between worm castings and dirt?
#asknostr 
 got to ask the worms. one's their work, the other's their workplace 
 So, don't shit where you work doesn't apply? 
 For worms, crapping on company time actually helps the bottom line 
 Texture, fine granules and appearance, darker brown then compose/dirt (generally). You'll notice an almost uniform fineness, with no chunks of compost.  They'll likely need to acclimate before they become active. Also, they aren't as active when it's cold, so depending on where you are you might have to wait a while.
