This was originally formulated from thiophanate ethyl, which is a precursor of the worm control products we use today (carbendazim - also known as MBC). Thiophanate methyl and thiophanate ethyl break down rapidly to form MBC and it is MBC that gives the product fungicidal and worm control properties. A soil that contains a high percentage of organic matter is likely to be high in worm numbers, as organic matter is their food source.
