PBSaint:

I misidentified the species of Roundworms in your specimen pics as Hookworms. 

They are more likely Ascaris.  I was close, but no cigar. 

Albendazole treatment is the same for both species.

Wormenstein:  I've looked at so many 'microscopic' pics lately & my eyes were fatigued.  I miscalculated the scale in PBSaint's 'macroscopic' pics.  Based on their actual length, the specimens are more likely Ascaris.   Thanx for pointing out my goof! 

Cheers - ICU
