Hard to tell with small image but appears as a baby bristleworm. Could even be peanut worm

All I know is it’s something that was eating them because a few of them are munched pretty good their is one that has basically half of it missing I’m surprised it opened up to be honest, not a bristleworm it’s to red/orange for that, never seen a peanut worm but the picture I looked up don’t show them with that color, should I redip in a week? I put them on new plugs all except one where there were to many connections for me to cut

dipping one more time would not hurt
