The insects which bore into humans include jiggers and lice. Jiggers are common in dirty conditions and their infestation can be accelerated by poor bodily hygiene. People who never shower and always walk bare-feet are more exposed to jigger attacks.

Wood bugs, also known as woodlice or pill bugs, are small crustaceans that feed on decaying organic matter.
