Parasite Prevention in Durham, NC

Heartworms, fleas, ticks, and intestinal parasites are a year-round concern in North Carolina. At Ellis Crossing Animal Hospital, we help protect your pet from these threats with tailored prevention plans and regular screenings.

Heartworm disease, spread by mosquitoes, can be fatal without treatment. Fleas and ticks carry harmful diseases and cause skin irritation. We recommend safe, effective preventives based on your pet’s environment and sensitivities.

Routine fecal testing is also part of our wellness care to detect parasites like hookworms and giardia early.
