Itchy Situation

Sometimes an itch is more than just an itch!

Summer camps are in full swing!  Did you know that camp time is one of the worst seasons for head lice?  The close quarters of overnight camp and the natural play of groups of kids often spreads lice quickly.  One case of head lice can multiply to a dozen in no time at all.

Recently, lice has reached epidemic proportions, in part because those little pests seem to be resistant to over the counter products.  

Did you know...The most common symptom of head lice is itching. Lice bites cause an allergic reaction which cause the itchy feeling.  However, you may not feel itchy right away, especially if it’s a light infestation. You may initially notice no symptoms for up to six weeks the first time you get it.

With camps in full swing - it's good to comb through your kids hair once a week, to detect an issue before it gets out of hand.
