Why are annelid worms helpful to humans?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

While some annelids are more harmful to humans than helpful, some are truly helpful not only to humans, but to other organisms as well. Earthworms help aerate the soil and act as prey to support terrestrial food chains. Other worms such as ragworms are used as bait and in aquaculture. Leeches, which are blood-sucking annelids, were important once upon a time in medicinal use for blood letting, are no longer important for that purpose but are still an asset to their native habitats.

How can you tell the difference between a worms butt and a worms head?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The head is the end of the worm that is closest to its clitellum (or, the band-like swelling which secretes a viscous fluit to coat and protect its eggs); if no clitellum is visible, you can put the worm down and observe the direction in which it crawls, and the head is leading it.

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Worms do not need a skeleton as, unlike many animals of the same build, they interact with the environment differently. Worms have no need for a skeleton as they mostlly live in the earth.

Are slow worms posionous?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

it's not a good idea since they are wild animals and it is animal cruelty to keep them locked up. I think there is a law protecting them.

Don't think that slow worms will start to like you, even if they have known you all their life. They are leg-less lizards, only mammals will grow an affection for you (if they ever do)

Will nematodes kill grubs?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Nematodes are one of the preferred natural ways of killing fleas. They are great for getting rid of infestations in your yard. Basically, they're little worms that kill bugs. They are microscopic, and they can't live in people because our body temperature is too high. They burrow into bugs, mainly earth-dwelling ones, and kill them as part of their life cycle. They also don't damage your plants or anything else in your yard, and they naturally occur in most parts of the world. You can order them online and put a higher concentration in your yard, and it will reduce the population of fleas there without relying on any chemicals.
