Abstract: Helminthiases are a group of parasitic infections that affect millions of people worldwide, with young children being particularly vulnerable. These infections can cause serious health problems if left untreated, and prevention strategies are critical to reducing their burden on public health. This paper discusses the risk factors for helminthiases in young children and the various prevention strategies that can be implemented. Improved sanitation, deworming, health education, and improved nutrition are effective strategies for preventing these infections. However, successful prevention efforts require a comprehensive approach that includes community participation and sustained efforts.
