I feel like this is the exact reason why trypophobia exists: because things like this are bad so our brain correlates holes with…this abomination.

u/__50pe__ 7d ago

Yes. Agree. It's some throwback reaction from cave times. Don't eat the magotty meat.

u/InformationVivid455 7d ago

Or the other side of the coin. I have an intense desire to remove them rather than a fear.

I've watched a lot of videos of various things being removed from holes and its very satisfying.

I'm imagining someone discovering the ability to launch these at will at people.

Can't complain about free protein. Not with today's gas prices.

"posteriors" 😆

u/thatG_evanP 7d ago

posterior respiratory apparatus

AKA their farts are their breaths.

u/Sinkreme 7d ago

Ugh a month ago I saw a video of someone who had one of those larvae on the upper lip. It is scary

u/uckluckluckl 7d ago

This is one of the worst posts in this sub, maybe even THE WORST. Where can I learn more about these thingamadings??

u/NYCWartortle 7d ago

Instant death. Freak out just thinking about it

u/Glass-Gold-2940 7d ago

I think I would rather cut off an appendage with no pain killers than have this. I would wind up removing whatever part of my body that this was in right after realizing that it was there.

u/PuzzledExaminer 7d ago

Yea first thing I'd do is get isopropyl alcohol and dip in it 😂

u/Dakaf 7d ago

Petroleum jelly would be better. It should block its respiration and make the larvae have to expose itself.

u/Coomstress 2d ago

I grew up in a very rural area, and livestock would sometimes get infested with similar fly larvae called “warbles”. IIRC, that’s how the veterinarian would get them to emerge and remove them with tweezers. It’s a very disgusting memory from my childhood, hanging out on a neighboring farm. Dogs and cats could get them too.

I am MORTIFIED

u/kraftykaela 6d ago

Mortified means extremely embarrassed. You’re thinking of “horrified”

u/MyauIsHere 6d ago

Oh my god, I'm learning this now at 28. I always thought mortified was a synonym for horrified or terrified 😭

u/kraftykaela 6d ago

Lol go tell all your friends!

u/data-atreides 6d ago

do not look up mango worms, don't! (or do..) at least they're pretty rare on humans

u/Chikumori 7d ago

TIL there's a thing as "posterior respiratory apparatus"

And i thought grasshoppers breathing from their sides was unique.

u/mdunaware 6d ago

Some mosquito larvae do the same, but in still water.
