Try to clean your USB stick. Remove the worm and maybe use a cloth to remove the dirt.

much thanks to @gary_host_laptop for the logo design :)
I would use a microwave to kill any worms / eggs still remaining, just in case.
Try C-band UV Lamp instead.
At the end of the day, if nothing help's, kill it with fire.
I'll also toss this hat into the ring - sysmon this is essentially a logging tool thats a bit better/nicer than the windows default, and categorizes all logs into very neat buckets that will make watching out for strange shit much much easier.
Sysmon is part of the sysinternals suite (vetted by the community + microsoft, which is sayin somethin lol) and you can make use this as the config file to use (Uses industry-standard MITRE Att&ck framework) which you can then use to correlate to more threats/malware authors/malware artifacts if you really wanna get your hands dirty/have some fun
To level set, Microsoft owns SysInternals, and has since 2006. None of it is “community vetted”, to me that implies FOSS or something.
