It would not hurt to add, common treatments for the specific parasites. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Anaccuratesource (talk • contribs) 06:25, 24 November 2009 (UTC)

We seem to have missed all the external parasites.Aaaronsmith (talk) 03:26, 12 June 2008 (UTC)
Isn't there something called "billiarisis" (NOT the correct spelling) that infects the snails that live on papyrus reed (africa) and can infect human muscle a little like trichinosis?Aaaronsmith (talk) 18:04, 22 June 2008 (UTC)
We're still missing fleas.Aaaronsmith (talk) 20:33, 15 September 2008 (UTC)
Ticks?
The inclusion of Rhinosporidium seeberi under protozoa may not be completely appropriate. January 2009. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.81.103.119 (talk) 23:16, 2 January 2009 (UTC)
What about the Candiru, the only known vertebrate parasite that has attacked humans (by mistake)? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.113.90.32 (talk) 05:42, 20 March 2009 (UTC)
Article name edit
Why "List of parasites (human)" rather than "List of human parasites"? 141.151.23.70 (talk) 23:29, 16 April 2009 (UTC)
- Presumably because that would invite people to post stupid things like "lawyers". Octane [improve me?] 31.05.09 0905 (UTC)
Trombiculidae (aka chiggers) edit
Should Trombiculidae be on this list somewhere? I don’t know much about parasites. Grand Dizzy (talk) 20:34, 18 September 2009 (UTC)
Can you cleans your body of these parasites? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.124.90.0 (talk) 01:58, 11 February 2010 (UTC)
Protozoans edit
These are unicellular. If they count, then so does any bacterial disease... I don't think it makes sense to be listing random infectious diseases. 72.40.152.209 (talk) 07:45, 26 March 2010 (UTC)
Fish edit
What about that tiny barbed South American fish that follows the scent of urine until it gets stuck in you? 72.40.152.209 (talk) 07:45, 26 March 2010 (UTC)
Mosquitoes, Fleas, Chiggers, Black flies, Ticks edit
why are all these missing? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.42.139.152 (talk) 23:24, 1 August 2010 (UTC)
Gnathostoma edit
It is under the fluke section, but it should be listed as a nematode. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2607:FCC8:9785:3C01:6CBA:3E9A:E6ED:6B38 (talk) 11:21, 26 April 2017 (UTC)
