The only parasites that I just cannot handle are maggots. Seriously, I've got a pretty strong stomach and have seen some gross stuff, but there are two choices with maggots- walk away or throw up. Well, those and cuterebra (but y'all have to google that, I'm not posting pics). Anything else, no problem.

Google "medical maggots" for details. Way cool IMO. |
Another interesting parasite is the guinea worm. You have to "wind" it out daily (gentle traction) to get it out. The joke our professor in med school made is that each morning you wind your clock, and you wind your worm.

Put bugs in that category for me. I can handle spiders, because in the grand scheme, they eat more bugs than humans. There's a reason I don't live in the south, even though I could have had my choice of a few Cup teams. Big bugs and humidity. Nope.
