A drink prepared with mint leaves, aloe vera juice, mastic honey paste and wine mixed with onions and honey are some effective home remedies for oxyurius fighting.
Infestation with oxyurius causes an intense anal itching, especially at night, and it is easy for the person to ingest the worm's eggs accidentally by scratching the area and after some time accidentally placing a hand in the mouth, for example. In addition, eggs can get under the nails and then reach other places like bedside table, food and towels, for example.
