== wear gloves to bed ??? ==

The article says "children should wear gloves while asleep" in the prevention section.

While there is a citation for the statement I can't seem to access it to verify this (in my opinion) dubious statement.

I mean c'mon what parent is going to tell a child to wear gloves to bed and what kid would want to do so? Also, I'm failing to understand how that would be of any benefit whatsoever other than to prevent infection from scratching throughout the night but that would do nothing to prevent or remedy the pinworm issue. Perhaps the source meant an infected child should wear gloves to protect from scratching until treatments taken have resolved the issue and the person that added this statmenet misunderstood. ] (]) 00:36, 5 February 2018 (UTC)
