Yup.
What?
You don't get worms in America?
Turns out you call it pinworm, we call it threadworm.
It's grim anyway, with the female coming out of your anus at night to lay her eggs. How disgusting is that for an adult, let alone a child to comprehend?
They are often spread hand to mouth, when hands are not washed after going to the toilet, but can become airbourne after contact with clothes - not much you can do about that - you simply breathe them in.
Classic symptoms - itchy bum.
Not verified medically - hunger.
Still said today by adults, "I can't believe I'm still hungry! I must have worms!"
