Look up Bot Flies.. they're taking a bandage out of the pore that used to be home for the larva.

 

My buddy went to Belize a few years back and came back with one of these under the skin on his head. Maybe the most disgusting thing I've ever witnessed, and it pretty much drove him crazy as you can feel it moving I guess. The prescribed treatment entailed something like suffocating it by sealing over it... can't remember.

Yup, a lot of people just use duct tape or anything that can seal off the entrance of the pore to suffocate the fly. Then, once it's dead, you can pull it out with tweezers.

Yea that is what it was, duct tape. They called their guide in Belize and described it, and he told them specifically NOT to go to a local doctor/hospital, as they won't know how to treat it. When it died/stopped moving his sister cut it out of his head for him; I didn't get to witness it, but heard it was pretty ugly....

 

It's my friend Jimmy and he has a crazy family, but awesome... They have a farm with horses and his sister got kicked in the face by a horse, basically collapsed her entire cheek/jaw. Has a steel plate now. Some coyotes once attacked his dog, so he sat on his roof for 3 nights with his .30-06 watching a bait pile of meat and picked them off - had great success. He once managed to set his pond on fire. Separately, we built a bonfire out of the wood they lost from the ice storm a while back, lit it with a flare gun and gasoline - it was called in as a house fire from 33, and it took the fire dept's "foam truck" to put it out :). There's plenty more - good times.
