Isn't there and old wives tale that if you have a tapeworm if you hold a plate of food in front of your mouth the worm will come out for it?? As they hook onto your intestines I think that remedy can be discounted. It can indeed, once there, they are usually only excreted in one direction.The ova (eggs) are microsopic and wouldn't be noticed by the naked eye, commonly transmitted from raw or undercooked meat, notabley pork together with inadequate personal hygeine from those handling the products.There are spedies of large lungworm endemic in African ares however, which are known to go wriggle-abouts when the patient is asleep Ewwwwww!
