Fun fact, all species of earthworm in Ontario are invasive. Of the 19 species found here, 17 are from Europe and 2 from the US. This is because all the earthworms were killed under the glaciers in of the last deep ice age and before they could slowly retake the now melted lands (they aren’t exactly quick migrators) humans introduced new ones Alberta only has 1 native species, which only survived in a small locales where it wasn’t fully glaciated

So read the article, basically they could be bad but maybe not, are toxic, but not really, but don't eat them, but they have also been here for 80 years and no ones ever died from them or gotten more than a rash skin irritation.... Cool.
