Does anyone know why worms get on the pavement when it rains?

i noticed that too!!!! like by the hundreds, i think either the water drifts them out, or they can't breath under the water and the mud so they get out!

it happens from a change of weather, it can happen if u dont take good care of yourself take your vitamins or wear socks all the time it happens.

whats with the guy that said 'no, but i jerked off'? i guess thats supposed to be clever. anyway i dont recall any 'hot' puddles but i like to go out in the rain instead of waiting til after it stops, barefoot if im just stepping outside.

sub surfice water can erode a road bed and cause sink holes or cracking and pot holes. if it is moving water the channel may get large enough over time to have removed the support under the road

They like bugs and worms.

this is a fungus.  Water in the morning, don't get water on the leaves.  When you water at night the water stays on the leaves which makes for a great fungal substrate and you get the spots.  You can spray but if you don't want to use chemicals the best method is prevention

Birds hear a lot better than we do, and worms moving around in soil make noise that is distinctive. OR, maybe they have Xray vision! :-)

because the moistness causes friction

They are actually increasing their range of vision by tilting their eyes toward the ground. Birds supposedly are extrasensory feelers, so they probably "sense" worms.

The same thing that causes prizms in crystals.  It is the colors of light, the rain condenses them just as the crystal does

Because, any material that gets wet over and over again is a potential soil for bacteria! \nHere it's even worse because the moisture comes from your body with all its secretions (clean or not)!!\nBe sure to always wash your towels!

Because the rain softens the ground and they look for mates and new places to to make more/new wormholes.

Because in "ye olden times" stuff got chucked into open sewers, including dead animals. When it rained hard, it all got washed out.

the worms are actually larvae -- they are pre-pubesent incects like flies.  the flies lay their eggs in food -- chances are you have eaten a billion fly eggs in food and never knew it.  anyway back to the story -- when the food gets the right mositure it signals the eggs hatch out larvae that live off the decomposing food  and they get big and fat and round.
