You need some basic knowledge of the subject and you contiunly get thing
wrong like boll weevil insted of boll worm and Prusuit insted of Round Up
and thinking that short lived catipelar in an isolated environemtn can

make a fool of yourself.

E. coli0157 can be foud in cattle every where in the world no matter if they
are fed grain or not.

The worm doesn't live long enough to develop the bacteria in it's gut and
there is no way to inoculate the worms gut.
