Akatswiri amatsimikizira kuti ngakhale bowa "wolimidwa" wogulitsidwa m'masitolo akuluakulu amakhala ndi zoopsa zambiri. Kupatula apo, izi ndi mapuloteni, zomwe zikutanthauza kuti zimatha kuwonongeka, monga nsomba kapena nyama.
Chifukwa chake, mu bowa wothyoledwa kuposa sabata yapitayo, kuwonongeka kwa mapuloteni kumachitika, chifukwa chake zinthu zapoizoni zimapangidwira muzamkati mwawo. Mutalawa bowa wotere, mutha kusokoneza mpaka kalekale ntchito ya m'mimba mwanu. Choncho, pogula, tcherani khutu ku maonekedwe a champignons kapena bowa wa oyster.
Mwatsopano bowa alibe mawanga ndi madontho brownish pamwamba pa kapu. Iyenera kukhala zotanuka ndipo, ngati tikukamba za champignons, osati kutsegulidwa kwathunthu. Ngati muli ndi bowa patsogolo panu, pomwe mwendo wakuda wadetsedwa, wasanduka dzenje mkati, ndipo nembanemba wakuda wakuda amawoneka pansi pa kapu, ndiye kuti ndi wakale komanso wowopsa. Mwachionekere sikoyenera kugula.
Ngati bowa watsopano womwe mudagula "wayiwalika" kwa sabata imodzi kapena ziwiri mufiriji, musazengereze kuwataya mu zinyalala: ataya kale kutsitsimuka kwawo. Osachepera kusamala ayenera kuchitiridwa ndi zouma bowa. Osagula kuchokera kwa anthu mwachisawawa pamsika, koma yang'anani mosamala zomwe zakonzedwa nokha: ngati nkhungu kapena nyongolotsi zasankha.
Samalani makamaka ndi bowa zamzitini. Chowonadi ndi chakuti mumtsuko wotsekedwa ndi hermetically mulibe mwayi wa okosijeni, ndipo ndizomwe zimakhala malo abwino opangira poizoni wa botulinum. Bowa umodzi wokha wochokera mumtsuko wosagwira ntchito wotere ungayambitse tsoka. Ndipotu, causative wothandizira wa botulism kupuwala chapakati mantha dongosolo la munthu ndipo nthawi zambiri kumabweretsa imfa yake.
