Worm fact: Did you know Earth Worms, specifically the kind most americans are used to seeing in their gardens, are not native to the United States. They are an invasive species that followed settlers from europe inside plant boxes. Their exsistence completely changed how agriculture was done in the U.S. as they changed the dirt and now are a permanent fixture that if removed would devastate everything! 🪱

Science side of tumblr:

Why do worms like to crawl all over the sidewalk after it rains?

They’re all over campus and it is becoming very difficult to avoid stepping on them for both their own sake and for the sake of my shoes.

How can I explain to them that they must stay in the grass if they want to survive?

Worms tunnel deeply in the soil and bring subsoil closer to the surface mixing it with the topsoil. Slime, a secretion of earthworms, contains nitrogen. Nitrogen is an important nutrient for plants. The sticky slime helps to hold clusters of soil particles together in formations called aggregates.
