how long does it take before you can smell s dead animal
Maggots do not harm humans, seeing maggots feasting off of a dead corpse, animal or simply rotting flesh is only the nature of the maggots. They eat Dead flesh and they have not caused the fate of the corpse. Although, there is a possible way that certain species of flies can lay a larvae of Maggots into a living person. I.e mosquito larvae. Therefore it can be infected and become fatal to the host. Although, it is the Infection itself that is harmful, not the maggots. And is quite easy to remove the maggots from the host in itself and many doctors have seen action of this.
No.
Maggots actually only eat dead flesh. They are cleaning creatures. If maggots are present, that means that the wound not only contains dead tissue, but it has been open long enough for a fly to lay eggs in it and have them hatch. The maggots themselves are not harmful, but they are a sign of more serious things going on. Your dog needs medical attention. Contact your vet right away.

Maggots of houseflies look like little white worms, about a quarter inch long, and they move constantly. Maggots of horse flies are much larger and a darker color.

I have had the same yellow maggots in long cocoons and I cannot find out what they are. Does anyone know?
Maggots can grow to several centimeters long and wide. The more food that is available, the bigger they will grow.
