Asian Jumping Worms?

[bigboreblr]

MY facebook page pops up with ads on those invasive worms found here n there in my state? How does this effect your no-till, forest understory, and our wildlife as well?

Anybody out there looking for them?

I am a avid fisherman who uses live bait almost exclusively. I have a bad disc in my neck, so I cant cast and cast lures all day. I am buying my worms instead of getting them myself this year.

Never knew they existed.
China must have a screwed up countryside with all the crap we ended up with.

They digest the compost ontop of the soil instead of below it, creating drier top layer. I have read they reproduce quicker than our typical earthworm from europe.

I know many like the live natural soil method for food plots. So this may effect folk on here possibly. It'll atleast make you look at a earthworm a bit closer.
