Brain eating amoebas, Naegleria fowleri, are microscopic. They live in warm water, like runoff water from power plants, mud puddles, and warm lakes. They can live in temperatures up to 115º F. However, amoebas cannot survive in salt water or treated water. Amoebas enter the body through the nose, usually when swimming in untreated water. Amoebas travel up the nerve that is responsible for smell, from the nose to the frontal lobe of the brain. They feed on the brain, and release enzymes that dissolve brain tissue.
