Background: Strongyloidiasis is a parasitic disease that mainly affects humans and is caused by a roundworm called Strongyloides stercoralis. It is endemic in humid tropical regions that include Africa, Latin America and Southern Asia. Among the public health important soil-transmitted helminths (STHs) classified as neglected tropical diseases, S. stercoralis is the most neglected. A study of schistosomiasis and STHs mapping was conducted and S. stercoralis larvae were detected using the utilized diagnostic method; thus, this current study described the prevalence and risk factors of S. stercoralis infection in districts of Sabach Sanjal and Upper Badibou in The Gambia. Methods: The cross-sectional study enrolled 851 schoolchildren, ages 7 to 14 years old. The participants were enrolled from 17 schools in Sabach Sanjal and Upper Badibou Districts. The WHO random sampling technique n/50 (25 boys and 25 girls) was used. Stool samples were collected from each participant and Kato-Katz smear method was used to screen for S. stercoralis infection. Results: Out of the total 851 pupils, 76 pupils (8.9%) were positive for S. stercoralis infection. The mean age of infected persons was 10.1 years (±2.2). The prevalence of infection was higher among females (9.2%) than males (8.7%). Rates of infection for age categories 7–10 years and 11–14 years were 12.4% and 4.2%, respectively. Rates of infection by districts were 12.3% for Sabach Sanjal and 7.1% for Upper Badibou. Schoolchildren from Sabach Sanjal were 1.6 times more likely to have strongyloidiasis compared to those from Upper Badibou (aOR = 1.64, p-value = 0.058). Schoolchildren aged 7–10 years were 3.2 times more likely to have strongyloidiasis infection compared to the 11–14-year-olds (aOR = 3.20, p-value <0.001). Schoolchildren who ‘sometimes’ have water or tissue after defaecation have more infection rate compared to those who ‘always’ have water or tissue after defaecation. However, this difference was not statistically significant (aOR = 1.36, p-value = ...
