And how shaving, waxing etc has made pubic lice an endangered species

Nice, how do we extinct bed bugs?

[–] Vespair@lemm.ee 27 points 10 months ago

Shave and wax your bed, obviously

There are people volunteering to "house" pubic lice to keep them from going extinct.

I don't support all forms of biodiversity

Same. An uncomfortable and embarrassing parasite that preys only on humans isn't exactly like wolves or the European Honey Bee.

Every species on earth except the lice themselves will be either better off or completely unaffected if they go extinct.
