Doctor Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 Do dermatobia hominis like bacon?As I read, bacon was used to get dermatobia hominis out of human's body, but did it work out? Method is simple - applying a piece of bacon to the wound with the idea that dermatobia hominis would like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phi for All Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 Method is simple - applying a piece of bacon to the wound with the idea that dermatobia hominis would like it. I've never heard of applying bacon to a myiasis infestation. A layer of petroleum jelly over the area is supposed to prevent the larvae from breathing, luring them to the skin's surface so they can be removed. Maybe the bacon suffocates them the same way? I'd rather use Vaseline and eat the bacon myself. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
