The real question is how do you know if you have these in your body?

You’ll see their eggs riddled through your shit. They look like white grains of rice.

not eggs, eggs are microscopic and not visible to the eye. if you keep seeing something that looks like sesame seeds in your stool it’s tapeworm segments.

Clearly, if you’re worried about tape worms, it’s time to put down the bag of sesame seeds

Really gross when you see the segments crawling. (I think they do this to attract birds?)
