Rats and lice
Rats and lice where a nightmare because they would bring in dieses and things like flees that would get on clothes.
They would eat the soldiers food which caused them to be attracted there and that also made them stay.
The soldiers dead body would attract the rats and mice because it became food for them making them stay.
The lice would get on there clothes making them uncomfortable to wear and sleep in and cause skin problems e.g. rash's.
When the rats started coming in because they can have loads of children it was soon swarming with them.
They were really hard to get rid of because they would eat anything and everything including peoples trench foot.
They would run all over the soldiers at night making them scared to sleep because they didnt like them.

They also had things like bread and biscuits which seems nice but really it wasn't because they were dry and horrible.

The flour also made the soldiers able to have things like bread with ground turnips and that was made into bread.
New pea soup was probably the worst because it would be glumly and contain a lot of horse meat in it meaning it wasn't nice.
