FACTS OF LICE – SOMETIMES HARD TO SEE

What are the symptoms of head lice?

• An itchy scalp
• A tickling feeling of something moving on the scalp or through the hair
• Red bite marks on the scalp caused by excessive scratching or a red rash on the back of neck

Detection and Diagnosis of Lice
Head lice and eggs are found almost exclusively on human head hair and the scalp, frequently around and behind the ears and near the neckline at the back of the head. Head lice and eggs are sometimes also found on the eyelashes or eyebrows, but this is uncommon. Misdiagnosis of head lice is common.

The best diagnosis is by finding a live nymph or adult louse on the scalp or hair of a person.  Lice Lifters offers head checks if you are unsure and the AireAlle heated treatment.  Adult and nymphal lice are very small, move quickly, and avoid light, so they may be difficult to find. Using a The Nit Nanny louse comb helps in correctly diagnosing head lice.

How They Spread
These critters move from head to head, hat to head, pillow to head, comb to head…If it’s been on someone’s lice ridden noggin, it could very well be a source of infestation.
