Those who have run Magmaw know that the parasites are a PITA, and generally the hunter gets to be the guy to hang out and kite them all.
So my though after wiping a few weeks in a row now is to bring in my turtle to tank the parasites, I dont think that the turtle will be affected by them
any thoughts?

I read somewhere about some hunter using his pet to tank the adds, but it should really not be necessary. If as hunter you are struggling, some other ranged should help you take them down fast. Using a tank pet may mean safer handling but you'll loose the dps and agi/crit buff from a ferocity pet and you have a different version of the dilemma.
Playing with talents and glyphs improves the performance. Dropping Survival Tactics and getting Point of no Escape significantly boosts the AoE damage on trap affected targets.
Glyph of Ice Trap also helps the CC a bit.
On last week's Magmaw I was alone on adds and they went down fast enough without issues, so those are the things I do differently from the majority of survival hunters do.

OfflineThe group Im in we have a BM Hunter, a Mage and myself assigned to dealing with the adds. The BM throws a frost trap just in front of where they spawn and I throw one down about the midway between us and them. Usually the three of us can burn them down before they get half way through my frost trap.
