Threadworms advice

[VLCos]

Hello yesterday I noticed one small wriggling white threadworm on my own toilet paper after wiping . Today one more . Does this mean it’s just the start of it ? Early on I mean at there is only the odd one?
I have a 5 year old and 3 year old I couldn’t see anything in the 3 year old poo and the 5 year old flushed before I could look .
Could it be I am the only one who has it ?
What’s the best course of treatment ? I know washing everything constantly but is Ovex a good treatment ? Ps none of us are itching ...yet

You need to treat the whole family as likely you all have them. Wash all bedding/towels on a hot a wash as possible. Boil wash flannels at least twice a week . Dont share towels. Take the medication and repeat as suggested.

Yep, get yourself some Ovex and treat everyone in your house (the eggs are tiny, survive on surfaces and can take a week or two before an infected person shows symptoms...so your DC could have them and not know yet). Wash bedding and towels, wash hands before eating and have a good hoover.

That’ll get rid of them but give everyone a second Ovex treatment in 2-3 weeks just in case any eggs did manage to reinfect you.

Thank you both makes me feel horrible just thinking of it . Children ha ! I think we might have got it early so will take first does tomorrow for us all keep up with the cleaning / hygiene and take another dose in two weeks ! X
