"Don't kill it, don't squish it, don't cut it up," Texas Agriculture Commissioner Sid Miller warned residents via NBC as a toxic flatworm spreads across North Texas.
While this invasive species has been in the US for years, the state's fatally heavy rains, fueled by climate change, are enabling the hammerhead flatworm (Bipalium kewense) to thrive and spread.
This brown and black-striped, flattened land planarian with a distinctive half-moon-shaped head can reach lengths of up to 40 cm (15.7 inches). Like many flatworm species, it can regenerate a whole new worm from slices of itself.
Decapitating the worm will only help it multiply.

I miss the old days when everything was blamed on the Illuminati.
Bet it can’t survive a roasting from a hand-held flame thrower.
We find them at our place in DFW after it rains. I usually put them in a ziplock bag and toss in the trash. They ugly!
Me to.
😂😂😂😂
How bout salting the whole thing?
Can’t read a scientist anymore that doesn’t INFECT a STORY with CLIMATE CHANGE CRAP.
“Decapitating the worm will only help it multiply.”
Isn’t this the story with some Muslims too ?
Tossing in a fireplace or wood stove won’t do it?
It’s the climate fairy again.
Maybe Texas was mean to Gaia.
Southeast Asia
These are Viet Cong worms. Kill them before they multiply!
“Toxic ‘Hammerhead Worm’ Is Invading Texas, Triggering Warnings”
Sure ... just don’t touch it with your bare hands.
Had to get that in, didn't they?
To add to their arsenal of "crises" caused by non-existent human-derived climate changed.
“...The recent spread is one of many examples of climate change driving the proliferation of invasive species...”
Right! 😠🙄
Brought here by you know who!!
“Exotic species are generally nasty, primarily because nothing eats them. They cause a lot more extinctions than people do directly.”
I stop reading right there.
Use them for catfish bait, maybe?
Find what are their natural predators.
I bet sprinkling it with salt would kill the buggers
