Here is a website with information concerning the horsehair worm (which is a parasite).

Worms don't normally bite, so my guess is it is a snake. Has it bitten anyone or just at people? You should take it to a zoo or college biology department. They may be able to tell you what kind of snake it is.

If it's only the thickness of fishing line, it is definitely an invertebrate of some sort, and not a snake.
It sounds weird, I'd like to see a photo.

It was a snake....worms do not bite. I hope someone didn't get bit. If it was venomous....the baby one can give more venom than the adult ones because they do not know how to control the flow. Let us know what kind it was....just curious.

Seeing how it is biting....I would say it's a snake.

if it is BITING, then it is deffinetly a snake! im not exactly sure how to define the species with such a vague description though, sorry.
