yup screw worms are pretty gross.
We had to watch worse movies than that of bot removal and other nasty parasites in Parasitology at uni :shock: more close up and detailed ewww totally grossed me out. One of them was a doco called "body snatchers" by the BBC.

cool link Isk

Body Snatchers was great wasn't it? What about the guy who cultivated a tapeworm for about 6 weeks? He let it grow in his intestines, then took some worming tablet and sh@t it out. It was about 6 feet long - I nearly vomited watching it!

Matt, I saw something intersting about how the bees protect themselves from these wasps. Bees can cope with a slightly higher body temp, so the bees can surround the hive, staying really close together and beating their wings really fast to raise the temp of the hive by a few degrees which actually kills the wasps!

As long as I stay far from those guys they ain't scary!

 

[callith]

Some pretty cool bugs there well unless you are attacked by them...

 

[sockbat]

Thats just yucky! I have a hard enought time dealing with the crickets for the dragon.

 

[squeezen spotty]

i feel so gross and ichy now..:shock: yuck, yuck, yuck. (still ichy) ahhhhhh

 

[Leigh]

at least we don't get those in Australia. I'll take half of all the venomous, dangerous, horrendous bites and stings we get here over these horrors any day, especially that video of the fly in that guy's skin, urgh.
