We're all aware of the big dangers that the
animal kingdom poses: sharks, bears,
snakes, more sharks. But what we don't
often think about are the small things, the
things like parasites that will crawl up your
unsuspecting pee-hole (No. 2) Or turn your
ass into a spaghetti buffet (No. 10). Here
are 10 solid reasons to lock your doors and
take a bath in hand sanitizer.
1: The Human Bot-Fly
This critter regularly deposits larvae in the
flesh of unsuspecting people. Over time,
the larvae grow and the lucky host gets his
very own pet maggots.
2. Candiru Fish, or Vampire Fish
I know what you're probably thinking. "Hey,
those guys don't seem so bad. They look a
bit like minnows." And you're right, except
I've never known a minnow to swim up
your pee-hole and lodge itself there until a
doctor performs surgery to remove it.
Forget piranhas, these evil bastards are the
best reason not to go swimming in the
Amazon.
3. Hookworm
These insidious parasites are dangerous
because they often don't produce any
obvious symptoms in the host until a late-
stage infestation. Early on after ingestion,
usually through contaminated water, they
attach themselves to your intestinal wall
and begin siphoning off blood, possibly
resulting in anemia or protein deficiency.
4. Guinea Worm
People have been doing battle with the
Guinea Worm for over a thousand years.
Once introduced, it grows to be several feet
long. The worst part is that the most
effective way to remove it is to pull it out of
the body by slowly winding it around a stick
for days or even weeks.
5. Sand Fly
This blood sucker differs from your average
parasitic freeloader by causing a horrible
infection at the bite area called
leishmaniasis, for no apparent benefit to
the Sand Fly. That's just the way it rolls.
6. Roundworm
Roundworms are found in every single type
of environment on Earth. They have
numerous parasitic forms and, oh yeah,
BTW, if they don't dig the way their current
environment is treating them, they just
enter a state called cryptobiosis, in which
they essentially hibernate.
7. Screw Worm Fly
This fly is well known for laying its larvae in
the flesh of mammals, where the maggots
rapidly grow and consume the flesh of the
host.
8. Scabies
Also known as the Seven Year Itch, it's
caused by a tiny parasite which burrows its
way beneath your skin, causing horrible
irritation.
9. Chigoe Flea
You've probably heard of this one via a
different name: Jiggers. The mating female
burrows its way into the feet of mammals,
where it lays eggs and feeds on tissue.
10. Ascaris
Or, Large Intestinal Roundworms. They
multiply fast. They grow long. They eat all
your food. They may come shooting out of
your ass like stringy confetti.

Me too. My skin is crawling all over

Lobsan Rampa: These pictures are horrible but still let the moderators move it to the FP so that people will benefit.

I disagree except you want some people to puke all over their devices. Nothing to gain from this thread (apart form goosepimples maybe). If the op had included preventions and/or cures for these infections, it could have been considered.
