Pinworms Cont’d  Can be prevented by having good personal hygiene. That said, it is more common in children than adults.  Infection is spread by ingesting the eggs, not necessarily in food.

Pinworm, Cont’d  Adult pinworms reside in the intestine, and attach to the intestinal wall.  Their eggs are not released in the feces, but instead they crawl and lay egg around the anus. This causes the skin to itch. When scratched the eggs are caught under fingernails and then transmitted to anyone in contact with the infected hand.  Prevention: WASH YOUR HANDS -- ALWAYS!!
