stage larvae burrow into the mucosal layer of the intestinal wall and moult to fourth -
stage larvae.

stage larvae.

stage larva is picked up from the dirt by a dog or by some other animal, usually in the course of normal self - grooming.
Step Two: The Worm Enters the Cat The egg, containing what is called a second
stage larva, is picked up orally by a cat or by some other animal.
«Not every third -
stage larva is resistant,» she said, referring to the infective stage in the heartworm life cycle.
After hookworm 3rd
stage larva are eaten, a complicated migration process begins leading to mature hookworm parasites arriving in the pet's small intestine, approximately 10 - 14 days later.
The egg hatches in the environment and develops from a first
stage larva (the hatchling) to a second
stage larva and finally a third
stage larva, which is ready to infect a new host.
If it is not Fluffy or Fido that pick up the second
