Maggots are not considered parasites in the traditional sense, as they do not actively feed on living tissue within a host organism. Instead, maggots typically feed on dead or decaying organic matter, aiding in the process of decomposition. While they may be found in wounds or sores on living organisms, they are often used in medical settings to clean and promote healing in infected wounds through a process known as maggot therapy.
