Recently, we received word from a reader that her apartment in Tacoma, Washington has become “overrun” with what she believes to be “no-see-ums” or black flies. Since their discovery, she swears she “can feel them inside the bottom of both” of her feet, and she asks what we know of black flies.

Red worms were found in the toilet bowl belonging to this man, who wishes that we identify them and provide instructions on how to get rid of them. The picture provided does not offer much insight into what these worms look like, other than the fact that they are minuscule in size, and that their bodies are very flexible, and they can bend and curl in many different ways.

A man from the UK recently sent in this image of a small, thin, red-striped worm found on the rim of his toilet bowl. According to him, the worm is 1cm (0.39-inches) in length and was found after his son had used the toilet.
