Trench Warfare was a dangerous thing and was unexpected for those who signed up to fight. For example, there would be different infestations by rats, frogs, lice, and disease that came with them. Men would die, even when there was no commotion or shooting going on. They would itch incredibly due to the lice eggs getting stuck in between the seams of clothes. The men were often bored during the day due to the lack of enemy productivity and the enemies would often attack during the night. I think one thing that the soldiers hated doing was patrolling no man’s land. Also the stench in those trenches were absolutely disgusting, can I just say that. http://www.firstworldwar.com/features/trenchlife.htm
