A maggot is the larvae of a fly. They tend to lay their eggs on garbage, inside carcasses, or on anything rotten. An example of this word used in a sentence would be, "The custodian was thoroughly disgusted by the moldy sandwich he found in the student's locker, it was covered in maggots and entirely blue."
