Pubic lice almost wiped out thanks to the popularity of bikini waxing

Add this to the list of ever growing reasons to praise the bikini wax - it may have made pubic lice and endangered species.
Doctors say that as pubic hair disappears, so do the crab-shaped insects that have made homes in human groins since man first appeared.
In Australia, Sydney's main sexual health clinic hasn't treated a woman with pubic lice since 2008 while male cases have fallen 80 per cent from about 100 a decade ago.

Even men are having their pubic hair removed in a treatment called the 'Sunga' that runs $90.
More than 80 percent of college students in the U.S. remove all or some of their pubic hair. And the waxing technique popularized in the 190s by a Manhattan salon run by Brazilian sisters is still trendy.
'Pubic grooming has led to a severe depletion of crab louse populations,' said Ian F. Burgess, a medical entomologist with Insect Research & Development Ltd. in Cambridge, England. 'Add to that other aspects of body hair depilation, and you can see an environmental disaster in the making for this species.' |

"I suppose the extinction of any species is a bad thing - but really, is anyone going to shed a tear over this one's demise?"
Possibly not until we discover that they were important in the eco-system for something else. |

Can I adopt one too. I will make it a nice little home in an ice cream tub with all the hair pulled off my brush for a bed. That's my brush for the hair on my head in case any one is wondering!
I would call mine Lucy
