# 9 Needle in Thread
Ever wonder how it could be so hard to get a piece of thread through a needle hole? This close-up shot might help you understand why. Even though thread is pretty small, it’s still made up of several pieces of fiber. Try getting this to that tiny little needle. That’s why even the slightest frying of your thread might make it impossible to push it through a needle. This might help you understand why it’s so hard to thread a needle, but it probably won’t make you feel any less frustrated.

# 8 Dental Plaque
When you neglect the health of your teeth your teeth, you can grow something called plaque. It can look a little gross even without any magnifications. Put that plaque underneath a microscope though, and you get a spine-tinglingly gross image of bacteria and bacterial product crawling around. Not brushing frequently enough can cause layers of these bacteria to just build up forever.

# 7 Human Sweat Pore
Depending on your sense of irony, you might think this image is actually beautiful or profoundly repulsive. This is a super zoomed in image of a human sweat pore. This is what produces sweat all over your body. Those petal-like things are actually flakes of skin. Some might say this looks like a flower; others might just feel really itchy all over while they look at this.

# 6 Swollen Tick
Ticks can be pretty dangerous little bugs. They can transfer disease and make you feel super uncomfortable if they latch onto your skin. The grossest part of a tick might be the fact that they suck out your blood and become bloated and full with your fluids. This is a close-up image of one of those swollen tick that seems to have a belly full of blood.

# 5 Bee Larva
For some people, looking at a bee with their naked eye is enough to creep them out. Bee larvae, however, might be a little less creepy. In fact, you might even think they look kinda cute. Get these little bee larvae underneath a microscope, and they go from chubby little worms to looking like horrifying monsters. They have microscopic eyes and a visible mouth.

# 4 Eyelashes
Usually, making your eyelashes longer and more visible is how we make ourselves seem prettier, but the closer you get to eyelashes the more terrifying they look. You might be thinking, “how can eyelashes be terrifying?” Well, underneath a microscope, eyelashes look like fleshy tree trunks bursting out of rocks. Microscopes of eyelashes might also reveal these little creatures called Demodex living on your skin. They lay eggs on the follicles of your eyelashes, and other pores on your face and they are probably living on your face right now.

# 3 Lice
You’ve seen what human hair looks like extremely close up, but these images can get even grosser. Here’s an image of what it looks like on a microscopic level when lice cling onto all your little hairs. They basically look like buff alien monsters with a bunch of arms acting like trapeze artists with your hair follicles.

# 2 Maggots
Maggots are pretty disgusting, already because they feed off of rotting corpses and garbage. They don’t really look particularly gross, except for the fact that we associate them with death and germs. Zoom in on their face, and you can see just how truly gross they can be. They’ve got two buggy eyes and vampire-like teeth that stick straight out of their body. Just imagine, hundreds of these squirming around on rotting meat in your dumpster.

# 1 Dustmites
Dust is everywhere. They can live in the dead skin that flake off your body and lint that builds up in your home. If there’s a place like a bed, carpet, sofa, or even a large pile of dust anywhere, chances are a dust mite lives there too. Countless of these creepy little organisms could be crawling in your furniture, but luckily they don’t pose any serious harm to your body.
