Ascariasis eggs are found in the soil. When that soil comes in contact with with the skin, it is easily transferred to the face, mouth, and nose. This causes the inhalation of the Ascaris egg.

At this point the Ascaris egg will mature inside the respiratory tract inside the lungs until it causes a sever cough. The egg will then be coughed and swallowed entering into the gastrointestinal tract. The Ascaris will then make its home in the small intestine until medical measures are taken.
