Do sea lice pose a risk to human health?

0

No, there is no risk to human health from sea lice. Sea lice live on the outside of the fish and feed on mucous on the outer surfaces of the fish. They would not affect human health if eaten, but the lice usually fall off or are cleaned off during harvesting or processing activities before the fish reach the consumer.
