A distressed man has turned to social media for help after waking up to find his kitchen floor covered in tiny worms every morning for the past two years. Content creator @khanyile.mbusi shared the bizarre footage mid-April, showing hundreds of small worms, approximately 1.5 centimetres long, wriggling across the floor of his home in the Eastern Cape.

In the troubling video, the man films countless tiny worms moving across his kitchen floor, expressing his confusion and distress over the situation. He believes this might be some form of supernatural attack, as he can't understand why this keeps happening despite his efforts to solve the problem. In his emotional caption, he apologises to anyone he might have wronged:

How worms enter homes

While the man suspects supernatural causes, there are several natural explanations for worm infestations in homes. These small creatures enter houses through foundation cracks, gaps in doorways, or open windows. They seek moist environments, making kitchens and bathrooms prime targets.

Worms can also appear when insects like flies or beetles enter a home and lay eggs, which later hatch into larvae that resemble worms. These larvae often appear in areas with food residue or damp conditions, which provide an ideal environment for them to thrive.

Foundation issues such as cracking, shifting, or sinking can create easy entry points for worms and other pests. Also, having flowerbeds, bins, or piles of leaves near the foundation can attract worms, especially during wet weather when they look for higher ground with better oxygen.

For those facing similar issues, they should call pest control professionals if home remedies like deep cleaning and insecticides don't work.

Briefly News spoke to health expert Jayshri Rangasamy about the issues that may come up for one living with worms. She stated:

"Worms like millipedes, centipedes, and earthworms in homes usually don't pose significant health risks, but can cause discomfort and be a nuisance. They may trigger mild allergic reactions, such as itching and redness, rashes or localised inflammation, and skin irritations from contact with secretions and bites. The sight of worms can cause psychological distress, especially for sensitive individuals."
"If they crawl into the nose or ears and reach the respiratory tract, they can cause irritation, and in rare cases, respiratory issues, such as coughing, wheezing, and shortness of breath. Be cautious of flies, as they can cause myiasis, where larvae infest human tissue, leading to severe irritation and infection. Maintaining cleanliness, reducing moisture, and sealing entry points can help prevent infestations. To prevent flies, keep your home clean, manage waste properly, use fly screens, employ natural repellents, and eliminate standing water."
