Description

The invasive hammerhead flatworm is being spotted all around Houston so we had to bring in Scott Solomon, biology professor at Rice University and City Cast Houston nature contributor, to help breakdown if these worms are dangerous to humans, how they arrived to Houston, and what we need to do when we spot one.
