הזהירנו מלאכול שרץ הארץ כתולעים והחפושיות והדומה להם וזהו הנקרא שרץ הארץ. והוא אמרו וכל השרץ השורץ על הארץ וגו'. ומי שאכל לוקה. (שמיני, שם פ"ב):
Sefaria Edition 2021, Translated by Rabbi Francis Nataf
He prohibited us from eating things that swarm upon the earth, such as worms, beatles and that which is similar to them. And that is what is called, things that swarm of the land. And that is His saying, "All the things that swarm upon the earth, etc." (Leviticus 11:41). And one who eats [them] is lashed. (See Parashat Shemini; Mishneh Torah, Forbidden Foods 2.)
