These worms are known to have originated in India and China and accidentally introduced to other countries via potted plants. In US they are considered as pest and are known to destroy huge population of earthworms in entire farms.

Thanks again Mark.
Let see how the battle goes :)
Good notes. We have also sent our Seriata (pointy headed flatworms) to the US and Europe so there might be a big battle one day. :-)
