Welcome Back, Maggots!

This year the U.S. Food and Drug Administration welcomed back not just leeches, but also maggots. In January the FDA, in case number K033391, approved maggots for use as a medical device.

(Thanks to John Bradley for bringing this to our attention.)

AIR editorial board member Mark Benecke is a devotee of maggots. He has posted on his web site a plethora of useful information and photos about the lovable little critters.
