10 Home Remedies For Pinworms
Home Remedy #6: Castor Oil
Besides working as a natural remedy for many conditions, castor oil can help to clear pinworm infestation. Castor oil has both antibacterial and antiparasitic properties. As an antiparasitic, it can kill pinworms and destroy their eggs effectively. And because castor oil is a laxative, it helps to flush out the parasite and its eggs from the digestive system.
To use castor oil for pinworms, take one tablespoon daily for three days to one week. If you find the taste overwhelming, you can mix it with some coconut oil. Other medicinal uses of castor oil include relieving constipation, treating acne, and rejuvenating skin and hair.
