The little twerp deserved everything that he got. Nothing scary or exceptional about this goosebumps tale.

R. L. Stine has called this one of his least favourite Goosebumps books, and I can't say I blame him. The gross-out factor is definitely prevalent throughout the episode, unfortunately the episode suffers from an otherwise incoherent plot not much improved from the book.
The episode Swarmin' Norman from Stine's newer series "The Haunting Hour" feels like an improved version of the story he was trying to tell here about nature fighting back.

Genuinely boring.

This episode is just very boring. There is nothing that interesting about the episode. Literally nothing. There is some gross out with worms, but that isn't scary, just boring. Worms aren't an interesting or threatening villain. So they aren't scary at all or even remotely creepy, just crawly. The main character is also just terrible. The protagonist of the story is also insufferable. He is just terrible and completely unsympathetic, there is no reason to care about this kid getting killed in some capacity. The only kinda funny thing in this episode is how quickly the protagonist's friend goes from liking him to hating him early in the episode. But nothing else in this episode is even worth talking about. It just fails at doing anything right.
