Most owners detect the small, flat, white, rice-like segments of the tapeworm which are shed in the intestine and passed out the anus onto the hair or on the bowel movement. When these segments fall off the haircoat onto the bedding,, they dry and look like dried grains of rice, only flatter.hen the flea eggs hatch, the flea larvae eat the tapeworm segments and become infected, allowing for the development of the tapeworm in the flea. When the flea is later groomed off the coat by the pet and ingested, the pet becomes infected with tapeworms.
