IT started off life in the form of a maggot, living off the bleeding of others. Whether it was an innocuous scratch or a fatal wound, IT was in there sucking as much as IT possibly could out of the victim, sometimes IT would return to the same spot to gnaw on the scar tissue. Once the wound had been sucked dried & healed over, IT would disappear & return as a 'pretty' butterfly sitting on the shoulder of ITs previous host who had now recovered.
One day when IT was sitting on the shoulder, just under the ear of ITs host, the host slipped. Another nasty injury was sustained by the clumsy host.
IT became a blowfly, a smart blowfly, when IT got into the wounds this time IT laid some little maggots in the host. Now the little maggots sometimes tell IT that they have found a new wound or infection & the big blowfly knows straight away about all the internal bleeding.
The host now knows the problems that blowflies & maggots cause, so the host needs to be wise & at first sight of a maggot within, it needs to be removed immediately & completely. As for the blow fly which comes & goes for the purpose of solely feeding itself & of no concern for the host, the host needs to put up as many barriers to keep away the sneaky, shifty, disease riddled parasite at all costs.
Remember this parasite needs a host, if it can't get to the host it has no purpose. The host must be vigilant, remember this a smart blowfly with chameleon like ability. All maggots & blowflies need to kept at bay at all times.
