Kukoromoka kweDunhu kunoitika kana kudzikama kwemawere kwashunduka kubva pakudzima kuenda pakusadzikama. Kushanduka kwemadzikamiro emawere kunokonzerwa nezvikonzero zvizhinji, zvangava zvinobatirana kana zvichishanda zviri zvoga. Zvikonzero zvakasikwa zvinowanikwa zvinosanganisira:

• Puresha inokonzerwa neMvura yemuvhu inosakisa kusadzikama kwemawere.
• Kuparadzwa kwemiti yakadzika midzi muvhu, kushayikwa kwezvirungavhu uye kaumbirwo kakaita ivhu racho.
• Gukuravhu rinoyeredza ivhu mujinga megomo, richikonzerwa nenzizi kana gungwa.
• Kusekesa kwevhu riri pamawere kunokonzerwa nekuwandisa kwemvura inonaya, kana sinowo inonyungudika.
• Kundengenyeka kwenyika kunosakisa kusadzikama kwamawere zvichibva pakuti ivhu riri pamawere rinenge rave matope.
• Mitoro inowedzerwa pamawere zvichibva paKundengenyeka kwenyika
• Kuduruka kwechikwatamabwe.

Kukoromoka kwemawere kunowedzerwa nebishingo revanhu rinosanganisira:

• Kutema miti, kurima pamawere uye kuvaka kunounza kusadzikama kwemawere anga asekesawo.
• Kundengenyeka kunokonzerwa nemichina kana michovha.
• Kudhuurwa kwematombo.
• Mibisho yekuchera ivhu inoshandura chimiro chemawere kana inounza mutoro mutsva pamawere.
• Kana ivhu risina kudzika, kubviswa kwemiti ine midzi yakadzika
