Thread: SoCal Wildlife - Gross

  1. #1

    SoCal Wildlife - Gross

    Okay....the turtle was cute but enough already!

    It has been raining here in SoCal...rather alot of rain. I am not surprised that worms come out of the ground when it rains but.....

    My husband went last night to do his physical therapy in the pool and...it was rather crowded....


    Piles and piles of them everywhere....
    he asked me if I would clean it up today in the daylight....


    YUCK!!!!!!

    Oh no!! Quite a lot of new creatures there - and I bet the E's aren't that interested in helping? Good sized snacks though.

    So will you be standing there with a fishnet? I can picture it! Sorry!

    I bet Don is glad he's back to at work!

    Come back and tell us you got them all!

    hehehe sorry... I can lend you my fish & they'll take care of all the worms in the pool. I just don't recommend going in with the fish as they would attack & remove flesh.. but the worms would be gone heheh

    Wow! That's a lot of worms!!!

    In lancashire, they hold annual worm-charming events, they do it in other counties too. I've never been, but saw it in a magazine once, and also on TV. It's so funny!!!!!

    Ok, WORMS are the only insect I CANNOT stand. The only think I hate about summer is the rain, when all of the worms come out.. ugh..

    DID YOU HAVE TO REMIND?! lol

    Speaking of foot long and boogers....eerrr....buggers....I made one last trip to dump garbage before we left the campground last Saturday. On my way back, I cut through a site that no one was occupying. There on the concrete, big as day was a foot long slug! I almost stepped on it - Eeeeewwwww!!!!

    Those don't look like any worms I've ever seen. They look
    like they could crawl. Ewww

    Am I sure that the dragon-slayer in charge (called Eddie) didn't bother?
