Obviously worms in general are needed, but any big group of mainly parasitic ones I could happily delete without a second thought. Ideally let's also destroy any records of their existence.

I could do without those hammerhead fuckers. They're invasive in our area, eat the regular earthworms, and really hard to kill.

If I had to choose one I’d choose one of the ones that’s already going extinct so I could disrupt as few ecosystems as possible

Alternately, is there an invasive species that harms the ecosystems it invades and doesn’t have a non-invasive counterpart? Maybe domesticated cats?
