Do you have animal holes in your yard? Raccoon feces almost always contains roundworm eggs. The roundworm lives in the raccoon’s intestine and produces tiny eggs that are expelled in the raccoon’s feces. One roundworm can produce more than 110,000 eggs a day. A raccoon can pass millions of eggs in its feces every day. Once deposited in your yard or attic, the eggs develop into the highly infectious roundworm in under four weeks and can survive in these environments for many years. If these infectious eggs come into contact with membranes or are accidentally ingested by humans or other animals, larvae hatch out of the eggs and move into the host’s organs. They travel throughout the body and can cause eye disease,  brain damage, or even death. Human Infections from raccoons are rare but are very serious.
