Worms is a typical disease of tropical regions most severe infection occurs during the rainy season. With environmental sanitation is poor or due to floods, overflowing rivers and ditches, eventually larvae - larvae of the worm spread to many places that are likely to come into contact with humans.

Worm larvae into the human body through direct contact, like children who play without the use of footwear in the regions of the former flow of flood or overflow of water channels. In addition, worms can also spread disease through food contaminated by worm larvae.

Larval worms usually will not hatch while not enter the human body. These larvae can live for weeks have not found anywhere though its host. Only after the larvae enter the human body, it will hatch in the intestine and eat foods that are digested by humans. So that the intestine can not absorb food because it was "hijacked" by the worm first. This has resulted in the human body becomes weak, thin, and lowered body resistance to other diseases began attacking.
