We didn’t get colonoscopies, but some worms are pretty hard to see in stool (hence the insensitivity of the tests), so I think they’re extra hard to see in a completely empty colon. (Can’t find hard data on this.)
As for the survival, these things spread from a couple eggs left in the dry dirt or wherever, so yeah unfortunately 1 day fast usually won’t eliminate an infection I’m pretty sure.
