Please see the picture!
I was taking out a mum out of a clay pot it has been in for a couple years to plant finally in the ground.
Of course, found some slugs/snails eggs...............
BUT..................
Also found these white worms with a brown head as you can see from the picture.
They were down a few inches in the soil, not near the top at all.

Can someone tell me what they are???
What to do to get rid of them???

If nobody here in the NW knows what it is, I will try another Forum here to try to get them identified.

Thanks,
Carol
