I have been experiencing the same problem. when it rains, the worms come to the surface to prevent drowning in the flooded soil. They aren't terribly bright and often fall into the pool and drown. what I don't get is how they are ending up in my pool which is surrounded by a screen enclosure. I have read that adding limestone to the soil surrounding the pool will discourage the pests from entering the area.

The wet conditions allow the earthworms to move overground without the fear of drying out. Earthworms can't be exposed to dry conditions for more than an hour or they become paralyzed and dry up in the sun.

we see earthworms at rainstorm because earthworms live by making burrows in the upper layer of the soil .Due to rains their burrows become flooded which create problem them to breathe .Hence earthworms come out from the burrows for respiration.

They come out of their burrows and try to find higher ground. Many drown when it rains really hard.
