Abstract
Such places of leisure as the dirt found in parks and public places can be infected with the stray animals
in these gardens, which can lead to contagious stages of parasites. A great number of individuals sleep in
them and could be exposed to infection by the parasites since the parasites’ infectious phases are able to
endure years or even months. regardless of the weather. This is the reason why the study was carried out
in various distinct locations of Wasit Governorate .
Simple random selection was used to collect soil samples which were used to collect a total of 35 soil
samples at different locations in Wasit and the modified flotation technique was used to process them. The
overall parasite contamination percentage of all the studied soil samples was 86 ( 30 / 35). Eight different
forms of helminthes were identified from all of the soil samples that were examined. (35 ) Toxocara and
Ascaris ova had the highest frequently occurring helminthes in 28% (20 ) of the samples followed by of
Ancylostoma in 14 percent (10 ), Trichuris in 3 percent ( 2 ),Enterobius in 6 percent (4 ), Fasciola
metacercariae in 3 percent (2 ),Diphyllobotherium in 6 percent ( 4( .The results indicate that the
communities that are at risk of zoonotic transmission are those that are at parks and other places of
community.
