Ubukho be-parasites, ngaphakathi nangaphandle, emzimbeni wenja kunokukhokelela kwizifo ezinzulu. Ngesi sizathu kubalulekile ukugcina ikhalenda ye iintshulube isilwanyana sethu ngosuku, kuba ukuthintela yeyona nkqubo ilungileyo yokulwa le ngxaki. Yindlela yesiqhelo yezilwanyana ekufuneka siyifumene ukuze sigcine impilo yabo ikwimeko entle.
Zininzi iintlobo zee-parasites, ezahlulwe ngokubanzi zaba ngaphakathi nangaphandle. Indawo yokuqala yokuhlala emathunjini esilwanyana, kwaye inokuba ziintshulube ezithe tyaba (iCestode okanye iTapeworms) okanye iintshulube ezingqukuva (Nematode). Zihlala zibangela iimpawu eziyingozi, zihlala zisisi sifo, njengokuphuma ngaphakathi, urhudo okanye ukugabha. I-anemia kunye nokuphazamiseka kwamathumbu kuqhelekile.
Kwelinye icala sifumana ifayile ye izidudu zangaphandle, Ukuqaqambisa njengowona mkhalane uxhaphakileyo, iintakumba kunye neengcongconi. Ukuphazamiseka kwabo kubangela ukuba baninzi kwaye kwahluka, ukusuka ekonakaleni kolusu ukuya kwizifo ezinzulu ezifana neLeishmaniosis. Ukongeza kugonyo zininzi iindlela zokulwa nazo, zihlala zihambelana nezinye, ezinje ngeepilisi zokulwa iiparasite, izitshizi kunye neepipette. Ezi kufuneka zisoloko zicetyiswa ngugqirha wezilwanyana.
La iintshulube Kubaluleke nangakumbi ukuba sithathela ingqalelo uninzi lwezi zifunxi-gazi zinokudluliselwa kwezinye izilwanyana; Ngaphezu koko, oomama bangosulela iinjana zabo ngepascenta. Ngamanye amaxesha adluliselwa ebantwini, nangona eyokugqibela ingaqhelekanga. Ukuba sinesilwanyana esingaphezulu kwesinye, kuyakufuneka silandele ulawulo olwaneleyo lokukhupha iintshulube zombini.
Yonke le nkqubo ibaluleke kakhulu ngexesha iinyanga zokuqala zobomi, xa amajoni omzimba e-canine esesichengeni sokuchaphazeleka. Emva kwexesha, ngexesha labadala, ukukhupha iintshulube kwenziwa phantse rhoqo kwiinyanga ezintathu, ngokwesikhokelo esimiselwe ngugqirha wezilwanyana. Eli xesha linokwahluka ngokuxhomekeka kwiimpawu ezithile eziboniswa yinja nganye.
