I’m not sure if the average Seagull is prepared to gulp one of those worms down, only to have it dance the Watusi down in their gullets. They may spit the troublemaker back up and just leave it for the Crows and Crabs to deal with.

Idiots are selling these across the US.
Their eggs survive Wisconsin winters.

Maybe they need to import some jumping frogs from Calaveras County, California.

Jumping worms ( Amynthas spp.) are an invasive species native to eastern Asia.

“Removing adult jumping worms to decrease the number of egg casings produced is the best control available at this time”
I dunno, I say kill ‘em all. What’s the big deal?
