Question from Mom
My son has pinworm and the eggs are hard to kill. Every site I’ve seen says to use bleach, but I’m sensitive to it, plus I don’t use toxic cleaners like these.
I’ve been using white vinegar. Will this kill the eggs while cleaning? Do I need to use it full strength?
I’ve also read that sunlight will kill the eggs, but no mention of how long items need to be in sunlight. Any idea?
And I’ve also read that heating the house to 95 degrees can kill the eggs, but also no mention of the amount of time necessary.
Any other ideas you have are appreciated.
Thank you.
