  The recent increase in immigration, as well as in travel to sub-Saharan and Latin American countries, has resulted in an increase in certain infestations such as myiasis. It is important to know the life cycle of arthropods, as well as the clinical characteristics of their infestation, so they can be included in the differential diagnosis of a furuncle with a complicated course. We provide recommendations concerning simple preventive measures for those who plan to travel to endemic zones and an effective treatment.
