Found this little guy scooting towards my tomato plants. Had to google research to identify what in the heck he was. I’ve never seen anything like him before. Has any of the THF encountered these odd creatures before?

It's an invasive hammerhead worm, not a blind snake. Better have killed it. Lots of salt and fire. Had a few at my house here in the city and very destructive.
