Sorry---here goes, ive been having earthworms of all things coming up the drain in my shower---(yeeeeech!!!)---they usually end up in the window of my shower before the next eves use, would I be correct in suspecting a broken pipe in the ground??? My shower is the last (first?) closest outlet to the drop into the ground...any thoughts??? thanks!!!

Either that or, the floor under the shower and a crack in the floor (like where the wall and floor meet) near the shower, but your probably right. Put something over the drain when your not using it, see it they still appear.

King, you've got it made! Just set a coffee can next to shower and start collecting them. Then you're all set to go fishing, drop them me your "medicinal garden" to help aerate the soil, etc.

It does sound like you have a broken pipe http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/frown.gif

Ive lived here 20 years and this is a first for me---the shower and all surfaces in the surrounding area are well sealed so they aint sneakin in from somewhere other then the drain, they seem to make there way for the window where the sun is...worms ARE cool, but not in my shower! Ive had the 8" or so clay pipe break before in the ground, maybe its happened again...

King,

This is a weird one! I've never heard of worms being so adventerous.

Hope you get it sorted.

All the best, Justy.
