The Sandfly has a furry, clear-looking body, except for its reddish looking internal organs. But watch out because it contains leishmaniasis, a parasitic illness that it transmits through its stinger. The condition comes in three forms—cutaneous, mucocutaneous, and the deadliest form which is visceral leishmaniasis.  The first two forms can cause disfigurations but can be easily treated. But in 95 percent of cases, those infected with visceral leishmaniasis die.
