Worm making webs on my substrate

So I found this type of worm, making webs on my substrate, mainly above the craters. On both my cased and uncased trays.
My grow tent is sort of outside. Do you know what this thing is? What it's doing and/or any advice regarding this?

Webs has been catching the water vapor from my ultrasonic.

EDIT : After cleaning this up a bit everything looks perfectly fine, at least I think so. 

I'm still curious as to what this thing is and what it was doing in my substrate.

I know >_< I neglected it awhile. I cleaned all that up after taking the pics. I left humidifier on too long often and assumed the aborts would just turn into fuzzy mycelium again.
I'm sorting it all out >.> Just curious really. It's winter and temps are averaging 50f to 60f if that helps any.

I don't think you'll get cubensis fruits at those temperatures.

You've got nematodes. They are tiny parasitic worms. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nematode

i dont know if its a nematode or just a plain old slug.. but damn buddy, something doesnt look right here! i mean im sure youll still get some mushies out of it, but something about the environment is obviously off for it to look the way it does.

I'm mostly shocked that you're just like, letting this happen.

Why do so many situations call for this meme?

Okay so things aren't fine. What would you suggest for future grows? Put salt around the outside of my trays? Or is it just a no-no to grow in a greenhouse outdoors?
Or... is everyone really just making a big deal out of a little critter making my tray his home? 
Note that this tray already had it's first flush and 2nd is here any day now, so it's not a totally new, freshly colonized tray. It does have some tiny aborts left on it that are barely noticeable.
Oh and yes, there has been slugs lurking around my greenhouse... When I find them I drown them... I love animals, but gahh... pests that creep their way into my space are just asking for a death sentence.

I'm not worried about it fruiting, the 1st flush fruited just fine
