What’s this? - Small chilli - 24-05-2020
Anyone know if this is a new Zealand flat worm?
A friend has just sent me this photo. I’ve never seen anything like it before.

I hope someone can answer you SC but comparing that photo to some on the internet it does look likely.

Don't know if this helps - not updated now. https://www.hutton.ac.uk/research/archive/2011-16/controlling-weeds-pests-and-diseases/new-zealand-flatworm

Thanks veggie. We’ve done some more research since I posted. And yeah we’ve decided, that’s the little fella.

Can you train your ferrets to hunt them out?

Maybe you'll have more luck training the worms!!
Don't they have Worm charmers?

I think a lot of Scotland has flat worms. We had a population on one plot at my other site. Easily brought in on the bottom of pots etc.
Horrible things, an abomination in nature.
