I have had red wrigglers appear survive in a shady part of my garden where I've used worm compost, so maybe they like southern climes, especially where they have lots of mulch? The spot they are in has lots of wood mulch and some horse manure.
I'm going to try moving some into a pile of horse manure, see what happens. Maybe they just need to be introduced.
