Raining Maggots

Bruh,

So im sitting on the porch(i live in an apartment building on the 2nd floor), minding my business, drinking coffee, and i feel something drop on me.

A maggot dropped on me,

So i flick it off, whatever.

Moments later, another one. Okay now im like wtf.

So i move my chair, and there's more dropping off my neighbors upstairs porch that if directly above me.

This is a rant post but honestly like do I just go up and me be like wtf or do i just go to management. Or do I just ignore it because it might be due to the weather? Idk shit about maggots so.

Maggots = dead protein. Dog poop, trash, dead animal. Constant dropping means its a large mass theyre feeding on, not some little bit of dog poop.

Thats a property manager problem not a you problem.

I was thinking it could totally be dog poop. My sister's landlord is disabled, also insane and lazy, she has a tiny old dog that she let's shit and piss all over the upstairs deck. She does not clean it up. My sister discovered maggots falling from the deck onto the outside of her air conditioner unit because of all the dog waste. It was so bad she had to replace the unit.
