When we lived in Kenya, our 11 month old daughter developed pimples, about a dozen, on her back & sides. We first though it was a rash, but when my wife showed it to an older missionary friend she said, “Oh those are mango fly larvae. Some call them Bot flies.”
She proceeded to tell us to put adhesive tape over the bites, wait 24 hours and the slowly pull the tape away. The tape closes off the maggot’s source of air, so they start to crawl out and get stuck on the tape.
Sure enough, the next day when we slowly pulled the tape back, most of the maggots remained stuck to it. The remaining few were pulled out with tweezers. Mom & I had a problem with the whole episode (”My baby! Infested with maggots!”), but the baby just smiled through the whole treatment.
Ugh!

What is the name of the worm, or whatever that crawls up your penis in Africa?

I did not see that one. I think I'm glad I didn't...
However, I saw "The Blob." -lol- Big black "terrorizing" hefty bag rolling all over the place; no worms though.

That is an awful story, but I’m glad your baby bore up well.
Also wanted to say: great tagline, and so freaking true!

but kids playing outside in the countryside can sure pick up this parasite occasionally and have brain parasites as a result. Sand boxes for one instance.
