Threadworms....how long to die?

Daughter has got threadworms now three times in six months. She took over yesterday morning and I see some of the worms still wriggling in her poos. Should they not be dead by now? About 32 hours later.

Ovex can take a few days as they starve to death rather than the ovex killing them directly

Ok thank you. I guess I'll have to do the whole house deep clean again in a few days.

I wrote a post about this a few months ago. It took a good 3-5 days for my DS. I thought they would never die!
