No Steripen products are tested or certified to kill Tapeworm eggs. If you would like to kill the Tapeworm eggs, you will need to use a chemical, but that is dependent on the eggs size. However, I would make a suggestion for another filter that can remove Tapeworm eggs. The Hiker Microfilter from Katadyn, find it here at this link: http://www.campsaver.com/hiker-microfilter.
