    skin can be found and is a big source for disease.

    Also dead
    cockroaches are full of diseases. Then it is extremely
    dangerous that the cockroaches carries in most cases the
    bacteria that can cause typhus.

    Ants are mostly useful animals but in some cases they can
    transfer also micro organisms. They prefer to stay in warm
    buildings, and need sugar and egg whites to survive. The
    tropical red ant can bite and then it becomes just like
    mosquitoes itchy. Ants should be removed from kitchen and
    food preparation areas, as they might get into food or
    ingredients without anybody knowing it.

    2.3 Parasites

    Parasites are organisms that live on other living organisms,


    where they source there food. Sometimes parasites need
    two or more different organisms for their own
    development. A few parasites are hidden in the flesh of
    animals, and are not visible with the human eye. Once you
    get an infection of a parasite, you can get very sick. Other
    visible parasites are flees and lice. Also the lint worm is an
    very common parasite in raw meat. Therefore it is dangerous
    when serving meat rare or medium, that this parasite can
    still be alive and cause severe damage once a person is
    infected. The biggest source for the lint worm is the
    Hamburger. If not prepared properly, the guest will get the
    lint worm in its body as well.

    There are several kinds of parasites;


    - parasites that are ON the human body, like flees and
    lice;
    - parasites that are IN the human body, like the lint
    worm and haring worm.

    Parasites that are ON the human body.

    Lice and flees are not a matter of discussion in this chapter,


    as they do not carry any disease, however, they are a sign of
    bad hygiene. If a person have lice or flees,
    than proper cleaning needs to be done, the body as well as
    the living and working environment needs to be cleaned up.
    Normally they can only be killed with chemicals but one
    should be careful, as the chemicals could also harm the
    human body.

    Parasites that are IN the human body.

    Trichinae is a parasite that comes in pork and boar. This


    parasite can cause, even up to several weeks after infection,
    pain in muscles, throwing up and dizziness.
    The trichinae will grow till they become worms in your body
    once infected, and can stay for several weeks in your body
