People in South California have major concerns about their feet, and the reason is miniscule, but unsettling. Swarms of tiny sea bugs identified as water-line isopods (Excirolana chiltoni) have flooded the beaches, biting people on their feet and ankles, reports suggest.These "mini-sharks" can form major groups of up to 1,000, according to Walla Walla University in Washington. According to Fox News, beachgoers claimed that the bite of the disgusting bugs felt "painful" and "surprising," and the lingering pain was felt for 15 to 20 minutes after the attack.Well, sounds like one more reason to move away from the coast!
