Screwworm Infestation Found in Local Pet, Vet Says It's the Worst Case in 10 Years
Common sense should tell you if your dog has a wound that won't heal, you take it to the vet instead of posting pictures on Facebook asking for "natural remedies."
A local vet just told me they had to put down a family pet because a screwworm infestation got out of control. The owner waited too long thinking it was just a "scratch."
Now we have a public health risk because people can't use basic common sense. Screwworms don't care about your feelings. Check your animals, keep wounds clean, and for the love of everything, call a professional before you end up with maggots eating your pet alive. This is why we can't have nice things.
