Its not the maggots so much as the wound! Holy crap. I hope I never get diabetes :/

There was a House episode where they used maggots on a burns victim's skin to great effect. Fascinating that this does a far better job than all the chemicals we could ever come up with.

It also does a way better job at the creepout than Housey going gangbusters on his patients to manipulate them to his will.

No, it's definitely the maggots.

I'm probably going to have nightmares about this now.
