all over it.

My dad went to the grocery store. He bought a pack of

meat for supper and when she got home she flipped the meat over and found
tons of maggots on the backside. Thomas
When we lived in Bhutan our kitchen floor tiles had spaces
between them

every spring the maggots would all hatch and crawl out on to the floor.
Every day we would have to sweep them up. Maegan
