[edit] Mulesing/Crutching
As far as I have understood mulesing is a synonym for crutching. Shall we add a link to the mulesing-wiki as well?

thats because you have no idea what you are talking about and so yoou should not even be thinking about editingGrinchsmate (talk) 06:57, 16 March 2008 (UTC)
- You do realise you answeared a three year old comment? :-) But you'r right. Mulesing removes skin and the crutching article now makes that distinction —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.202.237.125 (talk) 21:37, 16 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Putzi fly?
I found an unwikified, orphaned entry at putzi which refered to this entry. I transformed it into a disambig and here is the content that I now removed from it - hopefully editors more familiar with 'myiasis' will be able to reuse it.--Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus Talk 18:29, 30 May 2006 (UTC)
Putzi Fly. (Cordylobia anthrophaga). Also called the African Tumbu Fly. Found in Eastern and Central Africa. The females lay their eggs on clothes that are hung outdoors to dry. On contact with warm human skin, the eggs hatch, and the larvae burrow into the skin to develop into maggots. This process meanwhile causes pus-filled boils. Refer to "Myiasis".
