Tapeworms attach themselves to the wall of the intestines and absorb digested food directly through their skin. People can get infected with tapeworms by eating under-cooked pork. The larvae of the worm live in the muscle of pigs. If these larvae are eaten, they get into the human intestine and grow into adults. The eggs of the adults leave the human's body in the faeces. If pigs are allowed into the areas where there is human waste containing eggs, the eggs may be eaten by the pigs and the cycle starts again.
