Abstract
A convex region covers a family of curves if it contains a congruent copy of each curve in the family, and a 'worm problem' for that family is to find the convex region of smallest area. In this paper, we find the smallest triangular cover of any prescribed shape for the family S of all triangles of diameter 1.
