Amakhaya amaningi afakwe ukhaphethi, ngoba ukhaphethi ukhululekile ukuhamba kuwo futhi awubizi uma uqhathanisa nezinye izinhlobo zaphansi. Ukungcola, ukungcola, amagciwane kanye nokungcola kuqoqwa ezintanjeni zikakhaphethi, ikakhulukazi lapho izilwane zihlala ekhaya. Lezi zingcolisa zingadonsela izimbungulu futhi zidale ukuthi labo abahlala ekhaya babe nokungezwani komzimba. Ukuhlanza njalo nokukhipha amagciwane kukhaphethi kuzothuthukisa ukubukeka kukakhaphethi, kuwugcine unenhlanzeko futhi kuvumele ukuthi uhlale isikhathi eside.
