**6. Control measures**

*T. solium* transmission factors include inadequate faecal waste management practices, a lack of education, pig slaughter houses with no veterinary control, and the presence of wild pigs close to households, which are common causes of neurocysticercosis. The parasite condition could be fully eliminated. However, in order for eradication efforts to be effective, they must concentrate on complete control, such as with human adult tapeworm carriers, infected pigs, and environmental eggs. Inadequate focus on one of these targets might result in a subsequent increase in the prevalence of taeniasis and cysticercosis since these targets correspond to related phases in the life cycle of *T. solium* [36, 37]*.*
