Pinworms

• Swallowing pinworm eggs causes a pinworm infection.
• The eggs are found in contaminated food or drink. If you do not wash your hands well, your fingers can carry pinworms.
• The eggs then hatch in the intestines. Female pinworms move to the anal area to lay their eggs, which often results in anal itching.
• When you scratch the itchy area, the eggs cling to your fingers and get under your fingernails.
• The eggs then get transferred to other surfaces, such as toys, bed linens or toilet seats. The eggs can also be transferred from contaminated fingers to food, liquids, clothes or other people.
