Merry Christmas to you !
Funny that it's called Body Louse.
In Dutch it's called Head Louse, because that's the place where you can find them.
May we get some nice interesting cases in 2013.
Season greetings,
Hans
I've done some surfing on the web and found out that they are different species, though morfological indistinguishable.
The Human Body Louse lays it's eggs on clothes and the Human Head Louse lays it's eggs on hair.
