hen wounded, can't get rid of the maggots
maggots only eat dead material and are actually used in medicine to clean wounds. they will mature, pupate and tun into flies--and fly away. keep the wound as clean as possible and don't damage the area any more by trying too vigorously to remove the larva or by all means DON'T put any...- puyallupgal
