Zvipembenene zvinoruma zvinogona kunetsa uye, mune dzimwe nguva, kunyange zvine ngozi. Umhutu, nhunzi nhema, zvipembenene zvinonyengera uye nhunzi dzemhembwe-dzose dziripo muMaine, dzinogona kusiya mucherechedzo paganda rako uye nehungwaru hwako.
Hapana chinhu chinonzwisa tsitsi sedumbu rembwanana rakafukidzwa nenhunzi nhema, kana imbwa inoruma mhepo ichiedza kubvisa umhutu husina tsitsi.
Kunyange zvazvo mvere dzembwa dzichigona kudzivirira muviri wayo pakurumwa nenhunzi dzakawanda, mune dzimwe nzvimbo dzakadai sedumbu, chipfuva, nzeve, uye chiso, zviri nyore kuruma nebvudzi shoma. Mukuwedzera, dzimwe nhunzi, dzakadai semhembwe dzinobhururuka, dzinogona kuwana ganda radzo kuburikidza nehuwandu hwakawanda hwehudzi uye imbwa dzepester nokusingaperi.
Kuti varwise nhunzi dzinoruma, vanhu vanoshandisa makemikoro ekugadzira uye zvinhu zvakasikwa kugadzira zvakasiyana-siyana zvekudzivirira zvipembenene. Asi zvizhinji zveizvi zvinodzinga zvipembenene hazvina kuchengeteka kumbwa.
Imbwa dzinowanzozvinanzva, zvinoreva kuti dzichadya chero chinhu pamvere dzadzo. Mukuwedzera, zvimwe zvinhu zvinoshandiswa mumishonga inodzinga zvipembenene—kunyange mamwe mafuta anokosha—zvinogona kukuvadza imbwa zvakananga nomuganda.
"Pamwero mukuru, [mamwe mafuta] anogona kukonzera chepfu yakakomba, saka unofanirwa kungwarira," akadaro Dr. Ai Takeuchi, chiremba wemhuka paDedham Lucerne Veterinary Hospital. “Mafuta emuti wetii imafuta anoshandiswa nevakawanda mumhando yepamusoro. Inogona kukonzera kusawirirana kwakanyanya mumbwa uye kunyange kusashanda kwechiropa. "
Mafuta emuti wetii anowanzoshandiswa sechisikigo chinodzinga zvipembenene. Vanhu vanoishandisawo kurapa matambudziko eganda. Saka zviri nyore kuona kuti vanhu vanofunga sei kuti hazvina ngozi kumbwa.
"Zvakasikwa kana kuti zvinoonekwa sezvisiri zvemakemikari hazvisi nguva dzose zvakafanana nekuchengeteka," akadaro Dr. David Cloutier, chiremba wemhuka paVeazie Veterinary Clinic muVeazie. “Ndinongwarira zvikuru pamusoro pechinhu chipi nechipi chandinoisa paganda rembwa.”
Zvinoenderana nechinyorwa chekubatsira chepfu yehupfu yakanyorwa naJo Marshall, nyanzvi yezveruzivo rwezvipfuyo, mamwe mafuta akakosha ane muchetura kumbwa uye anokonzera matambudziko mazhinji anosanganisira peppermint mafuta, wintergreen mafuta, uye mafuta epaini. Pamusoro pezvo, maererano nechinyorwa chakabudiswa neAmerican Kennel Club, mafuta esinamoni, mafuta ecitrus, mafuta epepint, mafuta anotapira birch, uye ylang ylang anogona kuva muchetura kumbwa mune mwero wakakwira zvakakwana.
Rangarira, izvi zviri kure nerondedzero yakazara. Ndosaka zvakakosha kubvunza chiremba wako wemhuka usati washandisa chigadzirwa chakagadzirirwa vanhu vane imbwa yako.
"Ndakarapa murwere mumwe kana vaviri, uye muridzi akagadzira musanganiswa wake nemafuta anokosha ndokumwaya pambwa, asi yakanyanyisa," Takeuchi akadaro. “Sezvineiwo, imwe yembwa idzi yakashaya. Unofanira kungwarira zvikuru. Handikurudzire kugadzira zvinhu wega nekuti hauzive zvakachengetedzeka.
Veterinarians vanowanzokurudzira kurapwa kwepamusoro kunodzinga nhata, zvikwekwe, uye nhunzi dzinoruma semutsara wekutanga wekudzivirira. Aya marapirwo emvura ane makemikari ekugadzira, akadai sepermetrin, dosi yakachengeteka yembwa mukati mehuremu hwakati. Kushanda kwemwedzi inoverengeka panguva, kurapwa kwemusoro uku kunowanzoiswa kumashure kwemusoro uye kumusoro kumashure kwembwa, uko isingagone kunanzva. Mishonga iyi haina kuchengetedzeka kune katsi.
“Ndinogara ndichiverenga mirairo ye[topical treatment] uye ndova nechokwadi chekuti ndine saizi yakakodzera nekuti kune zvikamu zvakasiyana zvehuremu,” akadaro Clautier. “Uye pane musiyano wakajeka pakati pezvigadzirwa zvembwa nekatsi. Katsi haigoni kubvisa permetrin.
Takeuchi anokurudzira mushonga wepamusoro unonzi Vectra 3D. Mushonga uyu unonzi mushonga wenhata, asi unoshandawo pakurwisa umhutu, zvikwekwe, nenhunzi dzinoruma. Nekudaro, unogona kushanda nachiremba wako wemhuka kuti uwane mhando dzavanokurudzira.
“Dambudziko chete ndere kushandiswa kwekunze. Kana imbwa yako ichituhwina, inogona kuideredza mwedzi usati wapera,” akadaro Takeuchi.
Kuwedzera kune kana seimwe nzira yekurapa kwepamusoro, kune zvimwe zvechisikigo zvinodzinga zvakagadzirirwa imbwa.
Takeuchi anokurudzira kushandisa mushonga weVetriScience unodzinga mosquito nekupukuta. Iwo akagadzirwa nemafuta akakosha uye huwandu hwayo hwakachengeteka kune imbwa, Takeuchi akadaro. Mafuta anokosha epamusoro mune izvi zvigadzirwa ndeye lemongrass mafuta, iyo inongotora 3-4% chete yezvipembenene zvinodzinga. Cinnamon, sesame uye castor mafuta zvakare ari mune yeingredient rondedzero.
Uye zvakare, iyo Skeeter Skidaddler Furry Shamwari inodzinga zvipembenene yakagadzirwa muMaine inogadzirirwa imbwa. Zvinosanganisa zvinosanganisira sinamoni, eucalyptus, lemongrass uye mafuta ezuva.
Chekupedzisira asi chisiri chidiki, unogona kushandisa permethrin spray kana DEET (makemikari maviri anonyanya kushandiswa kudzinga nhunzi) kurapa mbatya dzembwa (senge bandana, vheti yembwa kana tambo). Iva nechokwadi chekutendera nguva yakakwana yekuti makemikari aya aome. Pfungwa yacho haisi yekuvarega vachibata ganda rembwa yako.
Kana iwe usinganzwe kusagadzikana kubata zvipfeko zvako, Imbwa Haina Kuenda kuMaine inopa majasi embwa anodzinga zvipembenene uye mabhande emumusoro akagadzirwa neNo FlyZone material, ayo akanyatsogadziriswa kubatanidza permetrin nemachira eshinda. Pamusoro pezvo, Insect Shield inoshandisawo nzira yakakosha kugadzira mavheti embwa nemabhandi emumusoro ayo anofanogadzirwa nepermethrin.
Iyi nzira yekudzivirira - kurapa zvipfeko nemakemikari - inogona kunge iri nzira chete yekumisa nhunzi dzine hutsinye, dzakadai semhashu uye nhunzi dzebhiza, dzinoonekwa gare gare mumwaka muMaine.
Kurumwa nenhunzi kumusana kazhinji kacho kunokanganisa kurumwa nezvikwekwe. Izvi zvinodaro nekuti kurumwa nenhunzi nhema dzinowanzokonzera mavanga akatenderera pambwa. Mucherechedzo uyu wakafanana nekupunduka kweziso rebhuru rekuti vamwe vanhu vakarumwa nechikwekwe chemhembwe ndokubatwa nechirwere cheLyme.
“Muchikamu che99% chezviitiko, ikurumwa nenhunzi nhema,” akadaro Takeuchi. “Tinogamuchira maemail akawanda nenhare pamusoro peizvi mazuva ese. Pane zvinhu zvinotyisa zvinogona kukonzera mavanga akadai pamhuka yako semuchetura wemakonzo saka tinogara tichivaudza kuti vatitore mufananidzo. .”
"Rudzi rwekupwanya rwakanyanya kupfuura ruvara rwepepuru, uye runogona kunge rwakakura sedhime," akadaro Cloutier. “Inowanzoitika panhengo dzemuviri dzisina bvudzi shoma. Naizvozvo, kana imbwa yako ikakunguruka ndokukwesha dumbu rayo, uye ukavaona, kazhinji kazhinji inorumwa nenhunzi nhema.”
Cloutier akati kunyange zvazvo mosquito dzichiruma imbwa, hadzisiyi kukuvara. Kurumwa kwavo hakuratidzi kunetsa imbwa kana kuvava sezvavanoitira vanhu. Chero zvazvingava, ndinofunga isu tose tinobvumirana kuti zvakanakisisa kuti usarega imbwa yako ichidyiwa kunze. Saka ngatiedze dzimwe nzira idzi dzekubvisa makonye.
Ndiudze izvo zvinokukodzera iwe zvakanyanya mune zvakataurwa pazasi. Kana ndakanganwa chimwe chinhu, ndapota igovera! Kazhinji, chikamu chekutaura chinobatsira kune vaverengi sezvirimo zvandinorumbidza pane yangu post.
