Sand louse

"Those guys are as persistent as Tatooine sand lice!"

―Han Solo

Sand lice covering a portion of Luke Skywalker's food rations on Beheboth.

A sand louse was a small insect known to inhabit arid environments, particularly deserts. They were generally regarded as pests as they would infest food and drinking water, spoiling them for consumption. They could be found on Tatooine and Beheboth.
