We just bough a new house only about 3 miles from our old one. I noticed there are a lot (I mean a lot) of worms in this yard I only remember seeing a few at the old house and I was there for 5 years. Why does this house have worms? Do we like worms in our lawn? If not how to I get rid of them? I also noticed a lot of black beetles.

Earthworms are nature's aerators. They are very good for your soil, and generally mean your soil is healthy with good levels of organic matter. You don't want to kill them off.
