Boyd’s Bible Dictionary:

(little worm). A bright red color much affected by Hebrews in the painting of beams, ceilings, and conspicuous objects (Jer. 22:1414That saith, I will build me a wide house and large chambers, and cutteth him out windows; and it is cieled with cedar, and painted with vermilion. (Jeremiah 22:14); Ezek. 23:1414And that she increased her whoredoms: for when she saw men pourtrayed upon the wall, the images of the Chaldeans pourtrayed with vermilion, (Ezekiel 23:14)).
