Calivermin Infestation

This post was adapted from something that I had previously written.

All true Washingtonians are well aware of a certain non-native pest that is destroying our state. That pest is the Calivermin. They have migrated north from their homelands and have become difficult to remove. It appears that Calivermin tend to overrun any place they feel that they can survive. They have infested numerous habitats over the years and have displaced species wherever they seem to go.

These pests tend to be very destructive. They are destroying forests that evolved free from the capabilities of Calivermin and have not developed proper defenses. These forests provide vital to habitat to numerous species including the endangered Washingtonian. They are removing the open areas that are necessities to Washingtonians and replacing them with dense colonies.

One characteristic of Calivermin is that they try to convert their environment into one more suitable for their species. Proof of this can be seen in the increase in Palm Trees growing in the region. They are also destroying numerous fresh and salt-water habitats and replacing them with their preferred chlorine water.

Of course, they are not able to convert everything to their liking. They hate nice weather. During flawless drizzly weather, Washingtonian should make the most out of the time. They need to get their proper exercise before their favorite recreational sites are clogged with Calivermin.

This environment isn’t even suitable for Calivermin. They are not just hurting Washingtonians, but they are hurting themselves. They tend to struggle with everyday weather. There are actually numerous reports that gray skies cause depression in Calivermin. While I haven’t seen any studies that actually back this belief, it seems to me that they would be better off in their native habitat.

The stronger the foothold that Caliverin develop, the more difficult it will be to remove them from the region. We must take action immediately. If possible, we should ship them back to their native habitat.

Even if we can get rid of these horrible pests, the habitat of the Washingtonian needs to be restored. We need to remove the dwellings that the Calivermin built for themselves and replace them with green space. Once Washingtonians redevelop the forests where they like to roam and once they stop having to compete with Calivermin for resources, they can become healthy once again.
