Halos around the sun and moon are associated with storms. On the night Superstorm Sandy made landfall in 2012, we received photos of lunar halos from across the U.S., and even as far west in the U.S. as the state of Washington.
Lice infestations (pediculosis and pthiriasis) are spread most commonly by close person-to-person contact. Dogs, cats, and other pets do not play a role in the transmission of human lice.Lice move by crawling; they cannot hop or fly.he three types of lice that live on humans are: 1  Pediculus humanus capitis (head louse), 2  Pediculus humanus corporis (body louse, clothes louse), and. 3  Pthirus pubis (crab louse, pubic louse).
Occasionally, head lice or body lice may be acquired from contact with clothing (such as hats, scarves, coats, etc.) or other personal items (such as bedding or towels) that belong to an infested person. This is the more common mode of transmission for body lice.he three kinds of lice that affect humans include: 1  Pediculus humanus capitis (head lice). 2  Pediculus humanus corporis (body lice). 3  Phthirus pubis (pubic lice or crab lice; also called crabs).
