I'm guessing that the maggot thing takes a lot of time. And it's just flat out disgusting :)
It would depend on the state of infection and how bad it was. That I'm not really good with because I tend to see things improve with medication. And things that don't improve with medication get put down. Usually we see improvement with medication in about two days. I'd imagine it would be longer without medications, probably a week if not more. We usually stop wet to dry once the wound has stopped draining pus and then switch to a more traditional bandage that's monitored and checked probably once... twice a day?
Always glad to help :) Hope it all works out! Can't wait to read it!
