agree  John Speese: I would say deparasite, since it is a general term, unless the text specifically states what kind of parasites.

disagree  Muriel Vasconcellos: The verb is "deparasitize," which is basically synonymous with "deworm."

  -> Muriel, thanks for your input. I believe you are wrong. There are hundreds of references and deworming is just for one kind of parasite.
