In humans, usually nothing. They're quite nutritious. Most insects are. It's just that most people think they're disgusting.

Maggots actually have their positive uses: Maggot therapy is the process of implanting sterile, cultivated maggots into wounds for treatment and healing of tissue infections. This is a form of biotherapy.

On the flip side, a maggot infestation can create a high risk of certain disease in sheep and other animals.

if you are stranded in the wild then for a great survival tip is if there are maggots around then eat them as they give you nutrition
