Larval Therapy to save British NHS millions

A British University is seeking volunteers for what will reportedly be the largest study into the healing powers of maggots. As the BBC http://www.bbc.co.uk reports, the University of York http://www.york.ac.uk is looking for 600 leg ulcer sufferers to test the effectiveness of the larvae of a species of greenbottle fly. Previous studies have shown that maggots speed up healing by eating dead tissue and leaving healthy tissue alone.
