There's been previous discussion about a predatory fungus and morg connection. In a way I feel a bit relieved that they could actually be helping. Please some feedback... Am I having accurate thinking, or am I having an "episode"?
"Due to the overwhelming abundance of nematodes throughout the world it is easier to say where nematodes cannot be found than to list the many places that they can be found.
There are many different varieties of nematophagous fungi. And many have yet to be studied extensively.
They are present nearly everywhere in the world and have evolved to hunt nematodes in their own way. These nematophagous fungi have evolved alongside the nematodes that they consume and have over time developed methods that are most useful to catch the nematode species that they hunt the most."

Here's a recent abstract concerning the use of nematophagous fungi to control gastrointestinal worms:

Some of the nematode trapping devices:
These are pix of specimens found mostly stuck to clothing and even interwoven into the cloth itself:
Long "thread" dangling from a towel, it was still woven in, I was shocked to see this one. Sticky stuff at the end:
This red one also is using the sticky substance to trap the "sugar snake", or whatever it's called:
These are trap loops from different filaments. Red seems to be dominant, although I've seen them every color...
