Some basic info... Ringworm is a type of fungus Tapeworms can grow up to 40-100 feet, usually one. Hookworms attach themselves to an intestinal wall and feed off of the blood. My information is not 100% correct but minor information I learned. Check encyclopedia.com or Wikipedia.com for more info.

Yes, you can catch worms from contact with dog and cat feces (children playing in sandpits getting eggs on their fingers), so children should be taught to wash their hands before eating. Roundworm eggs and Hookworm eggs (Hookworm is found only in tropical and subtropical areas) are the most common. Tapeworm is also possible. Hookworm larva can also be caught be sitting with bare legs in an infected area or walking through with bare feet. The larva can burrow through the skin. You can also catch ringworm from dogs, cats and humans. Ringworm is NOT a worm, it is a fungus, a skin disease.
