ain't nothing that we humans have come up with that can beat leeches'enzymes for restoring circulation and maggot's discretionary eating for removing dead tissue while leaving the healthy alone! I, for one, think it's kind of a "duh" to use organisms very well suited to such tasks instead of cruder artificial methods
