Lezi zici zinomthelela ekomisweni kwesikhumba:

• Amazinga okushisa kakhulu abandayo ngoba umswakama usuke uyivelakancane. Ngokuvamile, izinkinga zesikhumba ziba zimbi kakhulu ebusika;
• Isimo sezulu hot et eyomile. Ezifundeni eziwugwadule lapho isimo sezulu esishisa kakhulu sehlisa umswakama ube ngaphansi kuka-10%, isikhumba singoma ngokushesha;
• Le vula;
• Le sun. Umthombo wokushisa, ilanga lomisa isikhumba. Lapho uzichaya kakhulu kuyo, kulapho isikhumba sakho soma khona. Ukulimala kwelanga akugcini nje ukomisa izingqimba ezingaphezulu zesikhumba. Imisebe yelanga (UVA kanye ne-UVB) nayo inomthelela ekugugeni ngaphambi kwesikhathi kwesikhumba ngokuthinta ukwakheka kwaso. Zingabangela nomdlavuza wesikhumba;
• Le Ukushisa izindlu ebusika okunciphisa umswakama endaweni;
• The amabheshu ngamanzi ashisayo, ikakhulukazi uma emade futhi evame. Amanzi ashisayo ancibilikisa ezinye zezinto ezinamafutha atholakala ebusweni besikhumba;
• Ukuthinta isikhumba njalo ukwazi, imikhiqizo yokuhlanza yasendlini, imikhiqizo yezimonyo, amakha;
• Izikhathi ezijwayelekile ze ukubhukuda, ikakhulukazi emanzini ane-chlorinated kakhulu;
• A ukusetshenziswa amanzi anele noma ukulahlekelwa okukhulu kwamanzi okungenzeka, isibonelo, ngenxa yohudo olunzima noma ukuvivinya umzimba okunamandla nokuqhubekayo;
• THEutshwala, ngenxa yomphumela wayo we-diuretic (ukwandisa ukuqedwa kwamanzi).
