Wait I thought maggots only ate dead flesh.
This makes no sense.
I think the peroxide might just give you platinum blonde maggots.
A little peroxide on toilet paper does wonders on ear cleaning.
I wish I (my parents) knew about it when I was a kid.
That was a memorable Night Gallery episode.
well, I guess, on the bright side it could be a conversation starter...
This might explain the Taos Hum.....hmmmm? AKA Liberalville.
Kewel....
Specific myiasis
Caused by flies that need a host for larval development
Dermatobia hominis (human botfly)
Cordylobia anthropophaga (tumbu fly)
Oestrus ovis (sheep botfly)
Hypoderma spp. (cattle botflies or ox warbles)
Gasterophilus spp. (horse botfly)
Cochliomyia hominivorax (new world screwworm fly)
Chrysomya bezziana (old world screwworm fly)
Auchmeromyia senegalensis (Congo floor maggot)

Ahhhhh....South America. You got maggots trying to get in your brain. You got these little fish trying to swim up your private parts. You got Barney Frank trying to get in your a
Would that work for Obama? Might be worth it.
I saw several occurrences similar to this in Bolivia.
There was a type of fly/insect that would inject it’s eggs under a person’s skin where these eggs would develop into larvae. After several days, a large cyst would appear and the maggot like larvae could be seen squirming under the skin. When the cyst was lanced, the maggots/larvae would tumble out in a writhing mass.
There was a name for this fly/insect, but the name escapes me just now. It’s just one of those things I try to forget.
Yep. Clinton was reportedly on acid.
Oh yeah, sign me up to go vacation in some third-world craphole like Peru.
Or not.
Perhaps that explains alot about Liberals and their Brain, that is if they have one =)
Yea, I didn’t need to see this right before bedtime.
I was just on the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame thread where someone posted this “The best band of all times - xxxx” (name of band censored defensively), and so I found my way to Youtubes, brought up a cut by band xxxx, played it, and immediately got the impression that I had maggots eating my brain.
Memorable?
More like *unforgettable*, no matter how hard I’ve tried....:D
“Maggots eat dead flesh, not living tissue.”
Botfly larvae, fly maggots, eat living tissue. South America has botflies that will infest people. Most places it’s wild rodents like squirrels (I cleaned a squirrel with a botfly once, in the USA).
So you are mostly correct, maggots in the USA and most of Europe eat dead flesh.
In Guyanna ironing underwears dried outside was needed because sruff would lay eggs there that would then burrow larvae in your hips...
Reuing earplugs in the mideast was a nono. You could feel aracnids crawling around your ears. Cue tips dipped in boiling water did the job.
Probably botfly larvae.
Google botfly images and. Videos if you want to gross out.
