ABSTRACT

O objetivo do estudo foi avaliar a presença de helmintos em caixas de areia de creches públicas e privadas da cidade de Uberlândia, Minas Gerais em 2005. Foram selecionadas 14 creches particulares e 14 públicas que possuíam área de lazer. As coletas foram realizadas em duas estações do ano, uma na seca e a segunda na chuvosa. As amostras foram analisadas pelos métodos de Willis e Baermann. Na primeira coleta 17 (61 por cento) creches foram positivas para larvas e 14 (50 por cento) para ovos de helmintos e na segunda, em 18 (64 por cento) e 10 (36 por cento), respectivamente. Não foi observada influência da estação climática e da situação socioeconômica das creches.
