In Cameroon there are times when Cameroon can become very dry and dusty and in those times jiggers are every common and there are many of them on the ground that hide in the. Jiggers are these bug that looks kind of like a flea that get in under your toe nails and feeds your skin cells. They also nest under your toe nail and in your skin which I think is really nasty. There are ways to prevent jiggers but you can still get them even doing things to prevent. Jiggers are very common to find on animals like goats, pigs and chickens. If you try to stay away from animals that is a good way to stay away from some major area’s where they are. Also if you where closed shoes, wash your feet, check your feet a lot you should be able to not get any or not many. My idea that I decided to come up with to prevent this from happening ,and yes I thought of ways but I would duck type my toes everyday so that they are not able to get under my toe nail. Do I think that is a very bright Idea I would say so thought about that one real hard let me tell you. For I am not looking forward on how they take this bug out of your foot. The way they move the jiggers is taking a sharpen piece of bamboo and taken all the skin away from around the jigger and after that it is exposed and is way easy to remove it from your foot. You want to make sure you get the head with the body for then the jigger will bite back into your skin to hang on and not depart from your poor foot. This is something really to prepare myself for getting ready for heading into Cameroon not being too worried about it and not to let it detract me while I am there.
