There are two ways to eradicate las plagas: antigen injection and surgery.
If the parasite has not hatched yet,
it can be treated by administering antigen directly into the body.
Once it has hatched however, there's not much that can be done besides slow its growth.
With surgery, the plaga can be targeted and killed using a certain wavelength of radiation.
But this is not without its risks.
If the parasite has attached itself to the host's nervous system, the host will experience excruciating pain. And there is no effective anesthesia for this kind of procedure.
Surgical removal carries considerable risks, even before the parasite has fully developed.
Once fully grown however, it is too late: removing the parasite would kill the host.
But considering what will happen to them, death may be a mercy.
