Nose Maggot Removal

Ive been told by survival specialists that when you have an infection and maggots start to eat at it, you LEAVE them in. Why?

Maggots only eat rotten meat/flesh. They will not eat fresh healthy tissue. This allows people in the wild to survive and prevents gang-green/infection from occurring.

And this concludes Gr8KarmaSF's lesson of the day....
