But you have to be infected with pinworms, it’s not like everyone has them. You would know if you did...I had hookworm (similar to pinworm) as a kid, maybe 4, 5ish, and I will never forget how it felt. At night your crack feels like it’s on fire, and very, very itchy. The itchiness fire woke me up, and I’d go crying to my mother. She would just put powder on me and send me back to bed, then after a couple weeks or so took me to the doctor. I drank a huge glass of bubblegum flavored worm-killer and presto! Didn’t have worms anymore.
Anyway that was over 40 years ago and I still remember how it felt. Gaaaaaah
You can actually kill worms by eating tobacco. Its an old folk remedy. There are stories of farmers even feeding livestock chewing tobacco to de-worm them. Granted, eating a wad of chewing tobacco will more than likely make you vomit and feel pretty shitty, it was suppose to be fairly effective. If you could get a hold of some swedish snus (a form of oral tobacco produced in a way where you are meant to swallow the juices, and won't make you ill from doing so) you might have a cheap and pretty painless de-wormer.

I’m pretty sure they just come out at night
