Myiasis has been associated with poor standards of hygiene in children, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa. In our practice, however, we encountered cases of myiasis in children from high socioeconomic backgrounds. Four cases of myiasis were reported in children aged between 20 months and 7 years, all belonging to the upper socio-economic class. Spreading clothes inside-out on clothesline and shrubs was a major risk factor. We concluded that there is a need for the enlightenment of the public as regards this disease condition, even among the upper class.
