LIL, I looked IN my pots, removed the soil and found a few worms. None under them. 3 pots I checked had absolutely no worms and they were in the same tray. The others had 1-2 per pot.
So I don't have a bad infestation by any means...which is good.
Everybody:
DON'T LEAVE YOUR POTS ON THE SIDEWALK WITHOUT A WATER TRAY. This invites worms to creep in through the drainage holes when it rains. I found a pot with a few in it because of this.
I'm just going to keep on them. Whenever I see one, out it goes!
I agree with Growing old, I guess...but I don't think I'm going to change the media on my bog for a while. Moss is growing great on the surface, and I can flood it and siphon away toxins, keeping it clean. It is elevated, and on wheeles. A total of 8 cubic feet.

Steve: I found those links helpful and worth reading. Thanks!
I never knew mustard would bring 'em to the surface.
