Worming

[MarieWhite77]

Hi there,
I have two questions about worming!
My tortoise Lilly was diagnosed with high Pinworm count (I sent a sample to be analysed).

Vet gave her Panacur 6 days ago. I still have lot seen any worms coming out in her poop?
The vet said to take another sample 10 days post dose to see if treatments needs to be repeated.

I dumped all her substrate. She is now on puppy pads I change daily.
It leads to my other question.
How can I keep humidity high?
It used to be 80-99% with orchid bark and now it is around 30☹️
I soak her 3 times a day and spray her food and spray her shell several times a day...
Thank you!

You might not see any.
Sometimes the dead worms get absorbed or digested into mush.
PANACUR, administered twice by a vet is very effective.
A week plus without perfect humidity is not going to harm you tortoise.
Keep the temp correct for your species
