Hello Again Friends;

 

Little dark colored worms.

Not earthworms, not red wigglers.............

They are perhaps 1 to 1.5" long, dark brown, not slimy.

They are everywhere in the soil.

They immediately curl into a coil if you handle them.

 

Does anybody know what they are?

Should they be ignored or killed?

They seem to like the root area of my Saskatoon plants.

 

Any ideas?
