Pinworms

Pinworms are tiny, white, thread-like worms that live in the intestines. The female pinworms crawl out of the anus at night and lay their eggs on surrounding skin.

Pinworms are a nuisance, not a disease. They are very common in children and spread easily among children and staff in child care facilities.
