Re: Hymenolepis Nana (Dwarf Tape Worm) most common 25-44mm

:( I'm ready to give this car away too, or just park it for good even if it still runs fine. I use it as little as possible. Once mice start getting in a vehicle, it's darned hard to keep them out--they seem to like mine for some reason, and I don't leave food remnants to entice them. I've lived in houses in my lifetime that have had mice problems, but thankfully, this one is mouse proof.

I didn't notice how long of a lifespan the dwarf Tapeworms have?? And it looks like there can be many living together?

My daughter would pack her pet rat on her neck and let it crawl all over her- one day she was talking on the phone to me while she was doing dishes, and the dumb thing fell off of her shoulder into the dish water--too bad it hadn't drowned :( But, it later got sick and died--after it had gotten out of the cage numerous times and chewed holes in everything! Parents..don't let your kids have rats/mice for pets! Who knows what hamsters/gerbils pack--all animals pack parasites though.

One of the grandkids, lives in a house that is far from mouse-proof--and the parents let her keep the baby mice she finds in nests for "pets". People have died of the hantavirus around here! Dirty darned things! We had such an infestation of them a few years back, everyone was finding bunches of dead mice on their lawns every day--and not a few of them. The extension service never found what they were dying from--they said it was from blue-green algae, but who knows what they were diseased with.

In one of your posts about them..if you've had them, will there be a false-negative showing of them always after that on the QXCI/Scio? Or are they just that hard to get rid of that there will always be a trace of them from eggs etc?? Tweet
