They look like long, very thin, hair-like worms. Stretched out to full length they are about 7 to 10 cm (2.75 to 4 inches) long. Diameter is like a thick human hair, or sewing thread. Mostly black but with very light coloured ends. Following a short, heavy rain this morning there were dozens of these critters on the surface of the garden, many of them around the young cabbage plants. Although they may have been there, in all our years of gardening, we've never noticed anything like this before. Any ideas?
