Summary in the original language of the document

Enkelte arter meitemark er helt rå til å spise planterester. Andre liker eller best å gnafse jord. Stor meitemark fjerner over 90 % av løvet på bakken innen neste vår. For å få flere meitemark i jorda, er det bra med husdyrgjødsel og flerårig kløver.


Summary translation

Some species of earthworms are very eager to eat plant litter. Others like to crunch soil. These "night crawlers" make over 90% of the litter on the surface disappear until the next spring. To get more earthworms in your soil, apply animal manure and perennial clover leys.
