Crazy Snake Worms Move Into Connecticut

A state alert warns that Connecticut is being deluged by crazy snake worms. Scientific name amynthas agrestis and informally also known as jumping worms or sharks of the earth. By destabilizing the soil, the worms have already toppled stone walls in New England. Worse: they threaten to turn farmland into wasteland by taking all the nutrients. They are earthworms on steroids says state scientist Gale Ridge. She says to keep new crazy snake worms out of Connecticut, buy bare root plants only for your garden since they can be transported in potted soil. Another help comes from another invasive species – the hammerhead worm, which considers crazy snake worms dessert.
