Freaks me out!!!!

OK, you know what really freaks me out beyond belief?  Bot flies.  Ohmygosh just thinking about these nasty little maggots makes me want to throw up.  I kinda never want to step outside of my house ever again just in case one gets me...*shudder* Well, they're not really in the U.S but like the most southern part of the states...so, I guess as long as I don't go to the very bottom of Florida I'll be ok?  I used to want to travel the world and now I have a list of places I will NEVER go.


Botflies live in a variety of places, mostly warm and damp climates including throughout Brazil and Chile, as well as far north as the southern United States. Countries with known botfly encounters:
  • Adelaide - Elizabeth, Davoren Park
  • Argentina
  • Brazil
  • Belize
  • Bolivia
  • Canada - Northern British Columbia, Southern Ontario
  • Chile
  • Costa Rica
  • Dominican Republic
  • The coast of Ecuador
  • Guatemala
  • Honduras
  • Hungary
  • Mexico
  • New Zealand
  • Panama
  • Peru
  • Several small countries in Africa.
  • southern united states
