digging/collecting worms as bait in PA

[Tstove15]

Ive been fishing about 4 times a week, and being 17, the worms cost is kind of getting expensive. When it rains, the worms are all over my driveway and in the streets, hundreds and hundreds of them.
When i collect them, how should i store them? I know canadian night crawlers need to be refrigerated, but i read on like that Louisanna night crawlers only need to be in the shade...So i have no idea what kind of worms i am collecting lol so how should i store them so they live?

Get a nice styrofoam worm container, and some commercial worm bedding. Store them in the refrigerator, and go through them every week at least to remove dead/dying worms.

You can also feed them coffee grounds, and some worm beddings have built in food.
